8th Army Vignette (1 Viewer)

[whdamon]

Playing around staging some vignette possibilities using different figures and mixing in a few other tidbits from other manufacturers and time periods. Plan here is to come up with a series of vignettes that can be reconfigured in the fall for placement in the CT Valley Historical Museum (Springfield MA) where in 2009 we had a huge display up for over a year.

Here are a couple photos of K&C 8th Army and Jesus figures around the stable. The tank rider actually looks pretty good sitting up on the camel. The sherpard has some sheep from the early 1970's Britians farm set (I will need to repaint these) and the trees (and plant on the building corner) are from the 1960's Marx Iwo Jima set after a repaint. Yes I know these are most likely not true to the area, but with these displays we are trying to be representative not necessarily deadnutz accurate.

Any comments on mixing these various pieces??

Looking good, Walt. Can't wait to see this tonight "in person." But, hey, where's the British Bulldog in his car?????? This is just atmosphere!

Few more shots of the upper part of the stable with the British Officers. Radio was fabricated from some pieces out of the spares box
