Well done Wayne...Always good to see those K&C French 'veteran' Poilus...

Just a suggestion though...Alter the title to "Vive la France!"...'Viva' looks and sounds a wee bit 'Eyetalian'...

Keep 'em coming and best wishes, Andy.
 
Great scene Wayne. Love the K&C French sets.

Hi Duke, Thanks again !:salute::

Thanks Andy ! I think the West Texas Mexican culture here had some thing to do with "Viva" ....Alas "Vive La France" it is .:salute::
Always good to see you out and about talking with collector's online, as well as the shows in person.
 
Beautiful dio Wayne ... and superbly taken pictures. Hope to see more of this display .... How many pieces you have on ?

Thank you for sharing :salute::

Very nice Wayne.Looking at the backdrop this scene is set in the French Ardennes ?
I have a few old K&C French poilus in my storage room somewhere .
It's about time for me to use these beautiful early figures in a dio. Once my Atlantic wall diorama is finished I will start my dio "Présentez Armes"

Another hit, Wayne.

I think "one" of the reasons that I like studying your scenes and dioramas are the extra touches you place here and there. In this the scene, the sign and barrels, road obstacles , along with the debris and trees all make for a wonderful story.

PLUS your photographic skills are top notch.

Until next time.

Your title let me think of a 1969 movie( about fort Alamo) that I love : " Viva Max!" with Peter Ustinov.....{sm3}{sm3}{sm3}

Hi Wayne,

The way you blended the trees, terrain, and backdrop makes this photo set for me. Well done, Viva La France!
 
Hi Wayne,

I think that's the Hudson & Allen woodland backdrop if I'm correct .
It's really helping a winning diorama here and has been doing some good stuff on other
Dios posted in the forum . Going to get one for sure .

Ps the French defenses don't look like they can take much fire . true to life.
