Finishing the upper side of Hill Street, the last building really failed to grab me. It was a much mangled Downtown Deco plaster kit. Nothing wrong with these kits at all, the walls are mini masterpieces and deserving of decent treatment.  I just didn't seem to be able to "get" the plaster medium and tended to be a bit hamfisted with it. It won't be my last DD kit as I hope I've made all the mistakes there are on this one and Randy has some great designs. Sadly though it was destined to be scrapped, but then I thought "With little to lose but pride, why not really scrap it?". Here is the result and I think it will be a showstopper for visitors.  Never lose hope eh?  Named for a great mate, Dave Bowles, a seriously mean guitar player.
