discussion Noggin the Nog

[Peter Gillson]

Hi

Some may recall that a couple of years ago I was given some 28mm figures of Nogin the Nog which I painted and mounted onto a wooden base: https://www.scale-models.co.uk/threads/noggin-the-nog-and-friends.37533/

i was given a few more figures from the growing range and decided rather than extend the base, I would build a boxed diorama of Noggin's throne room, here are a few photos of the results:



in addition to the main charachters, there are now 2 sleeping guards, a mounted guard outside as well as some of Nogbad's crows on a tree outside the window Nogbad is standing alongside - plotting with his crows no doubt!

That brings back some memories mate, and very nicely done.

I remember the originals fondly. The extras and the display are brilliant. Real fun stuff.

Hmmm...
"Noggin the Nog" eh !!...
... About 17:40, just before the News started on BBC1 back in my childhood days ....
... If it wasn't occasionally replaced by "Ivor the Engine" of course!!
Cracking stuff there Peter

That looks great Peter, but Noggin the nog, isn't something I remember much about. Now that might be because I'm only 54, and too young to remember. Or because I'm 54 and my memory has failed me !

Cracking work, and I can remember watching it has a child.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Like many, I have fond memories of returing home. After school to watch Noggin, and Ivor!.

With 20/20 hindsight I think I made the room a little too deep, but to late to change it now. A fun project.
