Project "Volt-Zone" - Lisbon regional club

http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/9...ovzinitial.jpg

The project started in June when we finally found a affordable space, at the whereabouts of Ramada, near Lisbon.

We met with the owner a few times and the project got a green flag, so we took a few pics of this basement's last day as... well, a basement:

After a while, it was already painted white, our base coat for the next paint jobs:

Hi there, Herman.
Yes I did, no major glitches I could find on any scale, including Mini-Z and iwaver/firelap systems.
