Very nice Jeff {bravo}}, are some of those figures US recruits :wink2:

Cheers

Martyn:)
 
Very well done. Brilliant {sm3}

Thanks for sharing with us.

This range should have been expanded even more. More tanks were needed. I love these figures. Well done Jeff.
 
Jeff mate,
Outstanding cobber. Looks great. You asked for suggestions. Well I think if the boots were brown and the shoulder patch blue/yellow then it would look very Aussie.^&grin^&grin Only joking mate.
Keep up the fantastic work.
Cheers Howard
 
Very nice indeed, Jeff. Love the backdrop. I am afraid the Germans with the cannon are a bit too late
guy:)
 
That is a beautiful looking shelf display.
Great job on the setup {bravo}}
The use of the JGM trench items, the groundwork, the figure arrangement, the backdrop, all very well done.

Oh, and if you want to add an airplane or two to the scene, I really think you can't go wrong with any plane/planes from John Jenkins Designs :wink2:
 
You have done a very good job blending those trenches into the surrounding landscape. Always thought that camo gun was striking, but so far it has not appeared in my collection. The tank looks good too, nice balance Jeff in this diorama:cool:, cheers, Robin.
 
Thanks Guys! :smile2:

A few questions regarding K&C and JJD planes - which are the lightest in weight and which would be suitable for this time frame? I would like to have one British and one German (hanging by fishing line) in a dog fight above the ground battle shown. Please feel free to advise - thanks.

Cheers. :salute::

Jeff,

That looks superb. Those troops look much better in your case than the way I had them. I'm glad they were put to better use.

Is the backdrop JG as well?

As far as weight, the JJD planes are lighter than the K & C ones, which I believe are polystone.

Again, great job.

Cheers,

Brad

As Brad said, the JJD aircraft are lighter, and if you want a British aircraft, JJD is the only one who offers one, either the Camel, SE-5, or Nieuport 17, all available in British versions. JJD also makes an excellent Whippet light tank in the correct scale for your outstanding dio. Just a thought, you could have Roy Brown's Camel chasing Richthofen's red tripe over the battlefield. -- Al

Thanks Brad, yes the backdrop(s) are JG's.

I will have to check these out at the London show next month, thanks for the info Al.

Jeff,

I have ACE 10, Sopwith Camel, at the office and before I left today I picked it up and it was very light so those would probably suit your needs.
