The dock is built from blue foam and plaster (stucco) the fence from grill material found at LOWES the poles for the fence are lollipop sticks the hand rails are made using bent copper tubing. The crane is Cranky the Crane from Thomas the Train line of toys, its the remote control one (original color green) with full function rotation and hoist up and down to place cargo onto the USS Flagg's deck. I replaced the face with a plastic panel and added a cab compartment the fits 1/18 scale figures a little orange and white paint plus some weathering. The Forklift is also a full function RC able to take pallets from the racks and place them on the loading area. The forklift is a 1/16 scale forklift but fits the Joe's just fine the pallets I made out of balsa wood that give a bit more ground clearance for the forklift forks and the original ones where made of plastic and the loads would slip the wood ones corrected this problem.

The garage is repainted from a construction kit the came with a crane (unknown maker) I added some foam inserts around the walls and some 1/18 stickers from e-bay seller as well as various 1/18 garage accessories. Painted the outside walls with some kind of cherry red gloss color and added a cream color water color rub the filled the cracks between the bricks to give it depth. The grease stains are from a goo that I found in the handle of a comb used as soft grip. The brick wall and fence is made with real bricks and mortar and used a plastic fence pieces that I found on e-bay. The BBQ grill is a christmas ornament the two vehicles are full function RC's made from Losi micro's and 1/20 scale RC's more details on other post just look up my other customs.

Wow dude! I thought I was a huge ARAH fan. I don't even have space to take my Flagg out of the box, let alone build an entire friggin' dock/ shipping yard to go with it. If I was ten again, I would lie, and pretend you were my best friend just so I could hang out at your place and play with this! Awesome job man!
