Aannnnd we have liftof!
I ptd the brickwalls and posed the figs and props. Looking promising, eh?

Then I added grass, some foliage and rocks to the scene. The bldg props were glued into place. The first pic shows the whole scene within the box. The second picture is to proposed frame size for this scene.

I resized the gate and reposed testfitted the figs charging thru it. The focus is now on doing up the figures for this scene. And there are quite a number of them.

Here are a few more figs being knocked up, all French. I even used a Segom body for one of the figs.

I then added details and resculpted some of the figures to position them correctly in the scene.

Wow Victor! It looks fantastic so far!

Hi Louis,

Thanks for yr ebullient and premature remarks. But at this stage, I'll take all the kudos for energy as I plough the fields of Gravelotte....
I ve excavated quite a number of 1/35 body parts. Bought a lot of 1/35 figure kits with useless modern weapons and paraphernalia. Anyway, these 1/35 bodies will help to swell the ranks for this scene.

More work on these figs.

I started to paint and detail this lot of figs. Prussian blue is always shiny so I will have to matt it later.

Then further sculpted the nx lot.

These are some of the WIP figures.

Then I tested their positions within the scene. I had to relocate the bldg structures to get the results I wanted. You can see the areas where the grass was denuded.
The last pic is a dress rehearsal.
