Model Building A Bomb Scene

“We’ve planned the idea of late World War 2 Great Britain (say 1943-44), so we’ll have a mixture of American and British military mixed with civilian items, in a coastal port setting.This should include the preparations work for the invasion in June 1944 of occupied Normandy.

Something I’ve been pondering on is the inclusion of bomb and fire damaged buildings and roads around the port area. Technically these would be more challenging than whole buildings, since the exposed interior and rubble needs to be modelled accurately.

Has anyone experience of this type of model building.”
