You have so much stuff to play with. What a great time you must have. I would find it very relaxing. So different in that scale compared to the larger ones. Great stuff George, keep on posting as you play. :cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool::cool:
 
Thanks Michael, I have a ball with this scale, the possibilities are endless................
 
It must of seemed like the end of the world to the people on the Eastern Front.What destruction!

Usual brilliance George-those buildings really are something else. And you are absolutely correct with that scale you can achieve the impossible with a multitude of dios.

I always fancied using similar type war scarred buildings to depict the fall of Petersburg VA as part of Lee's retreat-but in 54mm I would need at least an acre of space:eek:

Great lay-out and always impressive

George, those buildings are something else! I always look forward to your WW2 set-ups even though I’m more akin to Napoleonic’s (hint, hint! :D).

Thanks Reb, I appreciate that coming from you, the king of ACW displays. I am currently working on some ACW artillery and some command sets with flags and once those are done, I plan on doing some nice 1/72nd scale ACW layouts...

Thanks Jeff; I am working on some ACW items at the moment, with Napoleonics primed and on the workbench right behind them.....
 
Another slick layout George. You ain't 'arf bad at these are you? ;)

It is always a huge pleasure to review your Eastern Front + Berlin Dioramas.

I will live to have this Tramway Car in 1/30 scale……:(

Thanks Simon; I do what I can with what I've got on hand here....:p

Thanks Rod, I knew you'd appreciate this one. The tramway car is a great display piece, it comes with the buildings to place on either side of it to finish a terrific mini diorama..
 
Thanks for the feedback Bromhead; any requests, ie, battles you'd like to see, I'm all ears.........
 
George, you never come to the Symposium, and so we all miss out on the opportunity of pushing my display tables off to the side and letting you set up one of these amazing dioramas over a space 45 feet long and 12 feet wide . . . I am so dissappointed!:eek::D:rolleyes:
