Just thought I'd post an update on my French WW1 Shelf Display featuring my latest additions and my take on a terrain base:

Very nice the way you have everything set up. It is a top notch display.
 
Magical. Out of the box thinking for the photo opportunity, the figures pose so well, would not of thought of doing that setup. I see you are right up to date with the series, those are neat little tanks. Even like the subtle touch of debris on the road, all adds to the realism. No doubt there will be bus rumbling past soon. Great thread. Robin.
 
The Renaults obviously waiting for the latest release tank commander figures to climb aboard!
 
Very nice work there.

You have created some wonderful mini vignettes on the shelf, and everyone can tell a story, I just love the soldiers seated having their photo taken.

Well Done ,

John
 
Very nicely done OB . . . . . great scenics and well staged. It didn't take you very long to be current with the French releases.

Very, very nice indeed. Great display and great pics.

I think you really need some Belgians to balance things out though {sm4}

My room is in need of the new French and K&C ECW pieces being put out, along with other WB pieces from last year as well as our own.... Soon hopefully :)
 
Wow! Looks stunning.
Yes, me too loving the photo on the steps!
Where is the petit chien from?

Thank you Maj. Duncan! The petit chien is from K&C's "Streets of old Hong Kong" range. Lovely little fella isn't he?

A couple of years ago he was with the German Air force - he gets around a bit doesn't he ?!

Cheers,

Roy

Thank you Empire MM....... ( I'm keeping my powder dry for the 1914 Brits...................! )

Thank you very much Robin! ( I forgot to disguise the green bases of the photographer and Driver...! I'll sort it out tomorrow! ) I have to say I think the Renault tanks are just outstanding - the best of the French tanks by far. In fact they just might be my all time favourites....!)

Cheers,

Roy
 
Hi All,

Just like to say I really appreciate all your very kind comments and likes. Now I have it set up I'll try for a British scene later on.
Cheers,
Roy
 
WELL DONE! Thank you for sharing that beautiful display with us. A great Diorama without any battle going on. It gives me the feel of getting a little R & R behind the lines. AHH! WWI the last GREAT WAR where the uniforms were distinct and colorful and the troops were proud of them. Today everyone looks the same in some sort of CAMO. I can see why there is a lot of Fractricide (sp) going on today. It is hard to tell friend from foe.

Very nice Roy. Really looks great. Are those the buildings that TM Terrain made for you.
