Thanks Colin 
I’ve now wrapped up the wadi and the road sections, so that bit of the project is done, although I still need to make some ‘pie wedge’ bends for he wadi so that it’s not so linear and also make the road junctions, crossroads and a few small filler pieces to bridge any gaps.
This is never ending…
…I’m now off to paint some tiddly planes for a bit of light relief.
Suspiciously quiet at the border crossing today……?
Watch out for soft sand…could get bogged down here? 
Looks like the rebels have mined the border track again…where are those sappers?
