Great to read your comments guys. The amazing thing was, time wise it didnt take too long at all. Rob and Tony did some preliminary work, six or eight of us spent about six hours on a Saturday and it pretty much built it itself from there. I already had the control tower and bridge from a previous diorama and the canteen and scrutineering shed were basically a one night build. When all the planets line up it's amazing what you can do!
