After finally managing to get a good look (with a quick spotlight) at these I
can finally comment :)
There's far too many lovely details for me to pick them all. My favourite bit is
the studs out on the sand red building. They work so well. I also really like
the dipping and rising row of studs forward 1x1 rounds above the door on the
light yellow building and what I can see of the first floor facade on the dark
orange and black one.
I have to say you keep upping the standard with these things. Please stop it,
you make the rest of us look bad :)

PS. And what are the numbers?
