Thank you all for the many wonderful comments!! I am once again humbled by all the praise.
Let me see if I can answer some of the questions that were posed:
The figures are primarily JJD but I also added some figures from Frontline and First Legion. The dogs are from the First Legion set "Cornwallis and his dogs" (AWI056).
I used 2 things for the ground cover; fine gauge ballast from Woodland Scenics for the sand........for the forest I used a product found at Scenic Express called their Dead Fall Forest Debris.
The river mat is something I had Mark Vuncannon of Build-A-Rama make for me. I wanted a mat that had more water than grass so I had it custom made. He takes special orders and charged me roughly the same price as the other mats he offers in the same size. I highly recommend contacting him if you want something custom made.
The trees are from many manufacturers. Mostly from JG Miniatures but several are also from Scenic Express.

Al,
You are right on!! I am a big fan of both the artists you mentioned. It was this Robert Griffing print that served as the inspiration for the dio I did:
