are you going to have some troops debussing from the hanomag?,....trying to get to the doorway to take cover?

is the bit of building from Miniart?....got one of those and scared stiff to start it lol

Cheers , I am adding more troops and the best part about it is they all look like their ducking for cove or attacking it not mini art this one is italieri and I got it from the shop on here, it should of been a house corner but I just stuck it together so it made a wall

the base looks superb i would get some dirt or leaves to put at the base of the building or even rubble...not knocking your work

I'm thinking along those same lines this has turned into an underconstruction piece without realising it. , I'm thinking of cutting the branches off that tree and using it as weeds with a bit of clutter on the deck for a more realistic look.

Thanks for your opinions

Hi Alan yep that looks much better haveing the hanomag at that angle puts a little action into the base without anything else being there. nice idea on the figures disembarking adds more action and exciment if that is indeed what you are going for, but a soilders at rest would also work well here too. You could also add 2 czch hedgehogs or some barbed wire here too... hope you don't mind the suggestions.

I don't mind the sugestions at all Scott , I don't have the figures for a resting scene however I do have figures for a checkpoint , their just standing around or walking so I can do a couple talking to each other

Hears a few pics with aduptations and I've completed the figure give cover to troops ducking for cover. [ATTACH]68646.IPB[/ATTACH]

Late on this Alan, apologies. Looking exceptional my friend, really good. Do you have any flock grass? If so, blob some PVA inbetween the road cracks and near the edge of the step and wall, add a some grass and blow off, just a suggestion. i

Hi Alan, late on this one mate. Looks superb so far. The figure looks really good. One suggestion is to use a blob of PVA glue and some flock grass, add the glue in a few of the road cracks, also just add a bit near the edge of the step and the wall. Top build so far.
