Favorite Artillery Set (2 Viewers)

These are Mike Laeding's pictures. I have both these sets. They are fantastic.
The WWI range was really an inspired one. I am not sure why it is not as popular as some other ranges.

This is also one of my favorite artillery sets. I first saw it in a Book called The New old Toy Soldiers which was published in 1992 and documented all the new toy soldier companies as they were at the time. I managed to get hold of it about two years ago from MKL.
I am glad I did as it would have become a bit of a "Holy Grail" for me.

Damian: I was hard pressed not to list the steam tractor gun team as my favorite. I was saving the Dragon Gun for Lawrence. But how can EQ74, The Gaudy Gun Battery, not be a favorite?

I have that set. I love it. Unfortunately they are all my favorites. The only set I am missing from WWI is the Denis Lorry search light set. The Gaudy Gun is outstanding.
Thanks for posting

Great diorama Martyn. This is a favorite.

One of my favourites too Tommy {bravo}}

Now 20 years earlier, 1879 to be precise, this could have been the Naval Brigade at gun practice in Zululand
