All being well I should be there this year. I believe Angel is the nearest tube, is that right?

I did observe the desert mat at one of the toy soldier shows and I have to agree, it isn't something I would buy. The long grass mats look ok, although I haven't viewed it up close. That's my quandry really. The thing that makes me want to do this, is that the WB trenches are ok but I believe...

You're all getting me a bit excited now! This is great advice. How would you assess your own first attempts at building a diorama?

Hi Mitch Just viewed this product. There's a little demo you can view. It looks decent stuff. What brand do you use for your scatter?

This is great. All power to you people for being so helpful. I'm basically going to attempt a WW1 trench layout - Western Front to begin with but I want all the bits and bobs I need in advance rather than having to stop during the project through a lack of materials. I've ordered 500 coffee...

A Battle of Loos line would interest me a great deal. It allows for both trench and village scenes (choice is never an unwelcome thing for a customer). Of course this is where chlorine gas was first utilised by the British, with disastrous consequences for themselves, and therefore a line with...

That's very informative and a great help, thank you. So, do you use the same glue when applying the scatter? Also, do you use a hot knife when cutting the foam or do you use something like a jab saw?

Rob Good stuff. Are those JG Miniatures mats? I was thinking of purchasing one of their rough pasture mats but couldn't decide. If so, do you recommend? Brad All assistance appreciated.

The money is not a problem. The talent to do it is quite another! Do you build your own Rob?

Me again. The plan is to have a ply wood base for my diorama and then build up the terrain using foamboard. Obviously I don't want the foamboard to melt, so question number two is, what brand of adhesive should I be using when attaching the foamboard to the ply wood to avoid any melting?

I may be appearing on these pages a great deal. It's time to stop asking others to build things for me and have a bash myself. Question number one is therefore, what is the best hot knife for slicing through foamboard?

Rob That was indeed the same Mr Churchill. Mad as a box of frogs.

I don't care much for WW2 but I was recently listening to BBC Radio 4 (I'm so terribly bourgeois, it causes me pain) and was made aware of an eccentric participant I was hitherto unaware of. "Mad Jack" Churchill seemed to be a bit of a hoot, so much so that even a confirmed 39-45 Philistine...
