Just splendid in every way George,
Fantastic collection of buildings plus the tanks and figures and just about every thing else on the table.
Starting a WW2 20mm collection had crossed my mind plenty of times and these pics might give me that push!

Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed the pictures.

I enjoy ACW and Napoleonics for the color and the mass, I enjoy WWII for the tanks and also the buildings and fortifications.

If my display is the jumping off point for you getting into WWII, that would be awesome, I wish you all the best should you decide to pull the trigger............

Thanks for the comments Mike, glad you like this one, I enjoyed the whole process on this one. Something about a boatload of tanks that looks good in the smaller scale, the buildings just add to it................

Hey George, ANOTHER incredible museum quality diorama, very nicely done. I agree the buildings give a much more depth of interest and quality.
How many figures on this one?

That is 1/48th (or so) right? The more I see of your work the more interested I get in the smaller scale .... just for the sheer volume in a small space.

Another George CLASSIC!

Wow! Nice terrain and great painted figs and vehicles! Great job mate!

WOW to the power of 10.

Is that 25/28mm? I don't recognize that brand of figures. I am currently painting some Warlord WWII metal and plastic Russians.

Thanks for the comments my faithful sidekick/comedian/assistant/right hand man/Mr Larry. There are about 400 figures on this one; with WWII tanks dominate the displays, figures not so much. The scale is 1/72nd, or 20mm; always has been, always will be my scale of choice, but that's just me.

Thanks Walt, glad you like it; the scale is 20mm/1/72nd scale, it's the perfect size for my needs.............

Tom,
Thanks for the feedback, glad you like it.............the five cats are all fine, we had a tornado threat a few weeks ago, had to shoehorn them all into the basement for shelter, not a pleasant experience trying to herd five cats into a basement..............:wink2:

Yeah, I can imagine you would have your work cut out herding 5 cats into the basement and then having to worry what they will do together amongst all your goodies!

Glad the tornado threat didn't materialize, I live in a cyclone prone area (known as a hurricane for you blokes), but the damage they do are not as severe as a tornado.

Great display George. Amazing how good it all looks when setup on one big table.

Thanks Andy, glad you like it; I'm in the planning stages for two 10 by 5 layouts, one for Kursk, one for either the Hurtgen Forest or Normandy, we'll see, very happy with the way this one came out............
