Has Farmer's Insurance seen/covered one of these? Great scene! The two guys looking at each other across the wreck says it all.

Great idea and beautiful execution... It makes me remember all these pictures of fallen tanks because of their overweight... But you catched the idea and create something very personal. Bravo !

. . . A Bridge Too Fahrzeug . . . funny, too cool!
A shame the rear axle on the gun carriage broke. Otherwise they might have been able to winch the gun up the incline.

I like this one a lot, especially the figure on the left side of the bridge, hands in pocket as if to say "Who me? Had nothing to do with it!" Bravo!

Very nice scene Barry.
There's something about those Caesar figures, they have quite a lot of character for small scale figures and look like they are actually interacting with each other, rather than either staring off into the distance or looking like shop window dummies. Hands in pockets, feet shuffling awkwardly, chin resting in hand and looking fed up...
