Hi all,
I have not been able to do much building for quite a while due to work and family stuff (new babies take so much time).
I am trying to kickstart my building again but cannot decide which to do out of three options.
Option 1; A simple dio of a ketten krad with flak gun and T34 in snow. Nice and easy.
Option 2; A motorcycle recon group stopped for a rest/regroup. Alot of vehicles and figures plus I might give the corkboard building method a bash.
Option 3; A what if showing various vehicles in an urban setting. Get to do some what to if camo and an urban setting with lots of debris.
What do you think as I can't decide.
Let me know which you would go for so I can hopefuuly make a start.

Cheers
Robbo

Option 2 could be good but with some debris "thrown in" for effect.

Like Claude said have fun and keep us posted.

Hmm, option 2 sounds good.
But if you would like to build option 3, my idea for the "what if" could be: that the soldiers paint their vehicle.
I saw a scene like this only one-times.

Do all three.
Start with Option 1 since it would be "Nice and easy".
Once you have that under your belt, you can proceed to the other two options.
I like Soeren's idea for Option 3 of the soldiers painting their vehicles. You could reduce this to one or two vehicles to make it an easier build.
But foremost, have fun!
