Yo Troopers, got a few more Chas models today:D. I suppose if Chas was still with us today to ask, his Dunkirk models would probably come out on top with him. Chas was at Dunkirk trying to get a ship back over for a few days, eventually he got on one of the Royal Navy Frigates, and was sent below even though he wanted to stay on deck. Lucky day for Chas because a bomb hit the Frigate killing many on the Top deck. The Pier master who was a Royal Navel Officer getting the Troops organized on the ships was probably the inspiration for the model, some things like that you never forget. Put some photos of the other models that arrived today. The Knight is the Black Prince hoping to get a titled base for this off a friend;).
Bernard.

I love the last figure. All serious sculptors and painters have done this figure from the tomb depiction. Perhaps one of the most accurate figures as a result.
 
Bernard,

You're developing a great Stadden collection. Love the Beachmaster. Congrats.
 
Some great new additions to your albums also Bernard. I especially like the George III model. Is he 90mm as well?

Yo Scott, yes mate 90mm should have said but all the king pieces are 90mm in the Chess sets, think its good now wait till you see it painted is superb, nearly all the Chess pieces have to be painted. Just bought another model will be going in the album in the minute:D.
