Steve,

Hey man........this is a great, well thought-out set up!! Nicely done!!

Love the story line and the way you staged everything. Especially like the sergeant yelling at the woman camp follower.

Steve, you have obviously imagined this scene in your mind and set it out with a lot of thought. The wagons and the lay back style of figures all make for a delightful colourful diorama. Always a pleasure to view your impressive work. Robin.

Robin, glad to hear you like it, always nice for a scene to be liked.
This time I wanted to do a more peaceful normal life type of scene and though there isn't a lot of choice with the small range that TG have released so far (and I hope they do pick up and continue this range, JJD do a few that I hope to get as time goes on) these figures seemed to fit the bill.

Nice to see a scene of gathering supplies, always the critical part of any campaign. Well laid out and photographed. Chris

Hi Carlo

Thanks, glad to hear you've enjoyed the scene.

The Barrels I got on ebay from this UK seller:

He doesn't appear to have anything for sale at present, but perhaps if you contact him he can make you some, they weren't expensive.
