[Warrior]

Elements of the 505th's 2nd Battalion under the command of Lt-Colonel Vandervoort attempt to link up with their comrades in Ste. Mere-Eglise.............

 

[Warrior]

Before they could get to their objective, they had to capture Neuville-au-Plain; they ran right into the 1058th Grenadier regiment..........

 

[Warrior]

The Germans defended the outskirts of the town with fierce resistance.............

 

[Warrior]

After fierce fighting, the Airborne units pushed on to their objective.....................

vERY NICE! Good use of the diorams to tell a story. As usual your scenery and buildings really make the scene look extra nice. I'm quite impressed.

Oh man! Oh man! Oh man, George!!! You are soooo giving me scale envy!!!! I love the Waco Glider!! And those buildings rock!!!

 

[Warrior]

Thanks for the positive feedback guys; Louis, special thanks to you, you've always been one of my biggest supporters (even though my collection is in the wrong scale), it is very much appreciated as you and I have discussed....................

 

[pnadworny]

Nice dio. I like the scenery and the buildings. What scale are your soldiers?

 

[Warrior]

Thanks Patrick, they are all 1/72nd scale, which is about 20mm in height; I prefer this scale because it allows you to do larger set ups and dioramas...............

 

[Spitfrnd]

Once again, a great display. Very enjoyable set of photos.

 

[Warrior]

Thanks for the feedback, glad you guys appreciate my collection in 20mm........................

 

[Fubar]

Too much fun George!Looks great as always.
Heat wave here. I should stay in the cave and set up something.
Good to see you can still SEE to paint 1/72!

Thanks Fubar, I'll be a 1/72nd scale collector forever, more and more items continue to come out in that scale, I love it........

Really like the damaged farmhouses, do you make them yourself? Great scene setters

 

[Warrior]

Thanks as always Colin for your feedback; a mate of mine in the Uk made it for me. I am looking into having it done in 60mm, will keep you lads posted.....................

Thanks Carlos, I appreciate your input; what do you think of my idea to put the trees, hedges, fields, ponds, etc into production in a larger scale for you K & C collectors (and other brands as well)?
