I cannot tell you how pleased I am with the WWI backdrops Ken Osen designed and painted, so, instead, I'll try to show you:

Hi Louis,

Try to level the camera on a 180 degrees in relation to the display base so we can see the backdrops as the horizon....Cheers

Next time I can make it upstairs, I'll give it a try! Sorry I'm the world's worst photographer!:redface2:
 
I sent my son up to take the photos so you won't have to wait until I'm up to it. Here's his attempt to follow your instructions, Luiz:

It's nice to have space isn't it? Great looking collection as always.

Here are a few shots where I think you get a better appreciation of the Hudson & Allen backdrops:

Very rainy morning here in South Central Wisconsin. Good time to give my collection a little bit of attention. Received some Hudson & Allen "Scenics To Go" diorama bases last week and this is my first chance to use them. Pictured here is some of my JJD 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment marching "through South Carolina" 😉. The backdrop is also an H&A creation.

😀 Mike

Mike, really terrific scene!:salute:: John Jenkins and Hudson & Allen look great together!
 
I just bought some Hudson & Allen wall sections from our hosts to place along the black border between the K&C ruined village pieces and the rest of the diorama, to tie the two levels of the diorama together:

Louis, several photos you posted today are not showing up.

Martyn made the same observation, but then said he could see the photos. Can you still not see them? Here are a few more shots my son Alec took:

Chuck, all the buildings along the back of the diorama are from the K&C Ruined Normandy Village made circa 1999. They came plain gray, and George (Warrior) painted the details on mine. Here is an overview photo depicting all the buildings:
