It's hard to type 'WOW' in large enough letters. Your use of color is
excellent, matched only by your use of ornamentation to give the buildings
such a wonderful sense of realism.
This pic is my fav:

That awning just blew me away.
Is it correct to say that some of the buildings are just facades? Some
appear to have shallow sides, but I can't tell if there's a back or not.
Example:

If so, I'm wondering if you use any sort of bracing that isn't seen from the
front. I am working on a large facade, which I found required reinforcing
to help stabilize the front wall especially. So I'm curious to know what's
behind the scenes in some of your buildings.
Also, I really enjoy your detail work. Especially the type of work seen in
this one:

Are you using any architectural resources (either printed or online) or are
you taking these from personal observations/photos etc.?
Thanks for the look at this wonderful world you're creating!
