Some period photos around the Globe. Note the Argentines Panhard AML-90 armoured cars of which they had 12. The cleanup begins with trash everywhere left behind by the Argentines. Note the Tavern as is today. Robin.

Attempting shortly to create my own diorama with the idea of replicating to some degree, Saint Mary’s Catholic Church, located on Ross Road, Stanley. The period photos show the Argentines taking up positions around this church. Will see what I can come up with. Robin.

Looking forward to your depiction, Robin. You've highlighted this theme well.

 

[mestell]

I'm sure whatever you create will be outstanding. Looking forward to it

My apologies if my attempt to replicate this church is not very good, it’s the best I can come up with . Robin.
Note the Argentines are very nervous as the sounds of battle grows ever closer.

 

[WesternOutlaw]

The church came out well, Robin. Well done.

 

[mestell]

I just noticed the TG figure (pushing the baby carriage). Nice touch.
