Hi all,
While waiting for my MP's and doing some other work on my North African dio I started this one.Adding a tree and some foliage.
Tom

Hi Tom,

I'll be following along, you've got a good bit done. This should make for a good display. Nice work so far.

Al.

Tom,

please correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't you say you've added a tree and some foliage!!??

Cheers

Good composition. Well done and thanks for sharing.

Hi Tom,

I like the composition a lot.

However, at first glance and at subsequent close viewing, I'm left with an impression that the Para is collaring and pointing his weapon at the civilian while she's poring him a cup of milk. Is it the camera angle, my failing eyes or am I missing something in the broad scheme of things?

Hi guys,
Yes Romain,was working on those yesterday.Pics later.
Funny you should mention that Mike.I've taken him out and put him back about three times.I had the exact feeling,first I didn't like his arm and then noticed the way he was holding his gun.He'll have to move,your right he looks too much like he's taking her prisoner.

Tom

Clearly she was a collaborator.

Tom,

I sensed that's what was happening on the workbench. I feel so much better now, knowing that this kind little old lady is not a collaborator. ... However, she might just turn after having a machine-gun pointed at her!

I think I've just been muzzled far too many times at the shooting range!

Nice to see some humour here.
Added a hay bale ,some grass around the fence posts and vines.First time attempting cork.By mistake I bought cork shelf liner. Turned out better than I thought. It was the right thickness, but I didn't realize it had a self adhesive backing .Glad it did. Still time consuming, but probably not as much.

Tom

You've filled that void nicely with the tree.
You've completely changed the Para's mood from to — what a difference! And the RangeMaster is happy now!

Quite a huge improvement Tom!

Congratulations Sir!!

Cheers

Romain

That's a great scene Tom and i love the paint work you have done on the figgies !Especially the paratroopers are in my humble opinion top-notch !

Congratulations !
