From one of the greatest movies of all time, I bring you the Palace Hotel. The state troopers and Good Ole Boys have just realized that their quarry have escaped, and are making a mad dash to their vehicles.
This is the result of about a month and a half's work, shown on display for the first time at the St. Charles Library for the NILTC's display this past weekend.
You can see a video fly-by of this layout at YouTube.

The Bluesmobile and the state trooper cars are pretty much the same build with different colors, seeing as how they are both 70's Dodge Monacos. (blues - '74, troopers - '77). A larger build would show the real differences, but I kept it simple.
Thanks to Adam, aka Stash2sixx, for reminding me that Elwood needed a briefcase. :)

The 'Palace Hotel' is actually the South Shore Cultural Center in Chicago. This building was just used for exterior shots - the actual room/theater that the band played in is somewhere else completely.
