I am working on a small vignette for a friend of mine .
His instructions were very clear: small, 1 figure and 1 gun or small vehicle ,Ardennes, second half of December1944.
Amongst all my TS I found TGM's 101st quad gun. Ideal for a small vignette.
I already repainted the figure and the gun
here are some pictures,
will show more pictures when the vignette is finished

Now I will show you how to make a typical "Ardennes" wall with simple materials. All you need is some balsa wood, some white wood glue and some cat litter. The pictures will show you what end result you can obtain .
1.Make the wall section in balsa ( double wall with some support inside the wall)
2.With white wood glue ,glue the cat litter to the wall;( make sure that the stones more or less interlock)
3.When dry fill the gabs between the cat litter with some plaster or polyfilla universal filler or another filler that you can find in any DIY shop
4.Paint the wall in different shades of grey ( local stone quarried in the Ardennes is grey )
and there is your wall
