    Message to Ken Osen about W. Britians WWII Figures

    Went to the Texas Toy Soldier show last weekend and had a Blast. The only disappointment was that Ken and Ericka were not able to make it. I Was looking forward to seeing them there. I sure hope W. Britain will be able to make the next one. Howard

    Texas Show 2017 (Pictures)

    That is just how we want it. A good Yankee is one that comes to visit. A d--n Yankee is one that comes to stay. Ya'll remember that when the snow is still melting in June.

    Before the scout

    What really makes this scene POP is the use of lighting. It appears that it is a night scene and they are sitting in the warm glow of a campfire which cannot be seen. Great job Abenaki. Howard

    4th Annual W.Britain Symposium - July 28-30, 2017

    I would love to go but they are always up in "Yankee Land". It would be nice if they would hold one down here in the Deep South. I would love to see the Symposium be a traveling location different every year. I guess there are not enough collectors down here to get Ken to come to Texas. Howard

    JJD King Tiger

    Just my thoughts on the subject. How many King Tigers of different manufacturers are really required. It seems to me that WWII buffs can only have so many King Tigers in a collection but that is just me. I would love to see John stay focused on his earlier 18th century collections and expand on...

    Hudson & Allen Backdrops

    Ken/ Erika, I am very glad to see you get in the backdrop business. I have been looking for them for a long time and you seem to have come up with the ultimate backdrops. All the others on the market were either to short or not the right 54 mm scale. I am really hoping you do a good desert...

    SYW, Nice Diorama Concept

    Konrad, I love this layout and would like to see John expand it with a larger base for more figures and walls. He has also released an Austrian Office and Drummer for this set and they are a must have. Check them out on the Treefrog website. Howard

    Trees, Trunks and Custom Foliage For Sale

    I did buy 3 large trees and am very happy with them. I also will be ordering more. They are every bit as nice as the pictures and They make great dioramas for FIW period. The tree foliage is somewhat delicate and when I received them some of the foliage was knocked off during shipping. But do...

    jjDESIGNS 10th ANNIVERSARY

    Very nice thanks for the picture, I hope he releases them and uses a standard base. I love the 2 new Austrian figures, Officer and drummer he released this year so he is working on them somewhat. Also I hope John releases the 2 Austrian Flag bearers that he has shown in the pictures with the 2...

    Tel-el-Kebir Redoubt – my version!

    Very nice, Hopefully you made more than one while you have the exact materials handy so you could extend the redoubt and expand the scene in the future if you desire. It looks like the profile can be matched easily while you still have the exact thickness of base and foam to match . I think that...

    jjDESIGNS 10th ANNIVERSARY

    How about expanding the 7YW with the line he has already started. More line infantry, Artillery, more Austrian units, Hussars, Cuirassier, Dragoons, British, French, Hanoverians, Saxons, Bavarians, need I say more. Beautiful uniforms and Flags for a pleasing array of battles. What more could you...

    Repelling the Redcoats

    Very nicely photographed and I agree that is a great back drop. Where do all these nice backdrops come from. I rarely see dealers selling them and they are always to short when they do have them. I must be missing something because I have been searching for backdrops for awhile. Anybody got a...

    War Along the Nile - Tel-el-Kebir 1882 range.

    As a dioramist I really do not have a problem with the repainted figures because the poses are universal and if the rest of the uniform is correct I am OK. But I would expect the line to be supplmented with new poses and new units such as the Indians that were part of the British army at...

    My Leuthen collection - it's starting to come together.........

    Thank You for the beautiful pictures of the church. Would you happen to have a picture of the front of the church with the front door on the steeple side? Carlo are you taking this all in? It will make a beautiful model. Thanks Howard

    What would collectors like to see from W. Britain in the future.

    Thanks for the reply. I have looked on the internet and in many stylized prints of the Sudan War of the time they show the British carrying the Queens colors but no regimental colors. I do not know if that is just literary license or if in fact there were National Colors carried at certain...

    My Leuthen collection - it's starting to come together.........

    The Portal and Wall looks to have been altered with the addition that is built on to it that was not there during the battle. Does anyone know if this is the rear portal entrance to the church yard and if so did they have the exact portal on the opposite side of the front entrance to the church...
