Looks real good, Guy. The two-tone and B/W pictures are very nice but I like the way the color photos give one an idea about just how effective the horizon-blue uniform was as camoflage. It seems to melt into the grays and browns of the dio extremely well. Your dirty trench is also very well done. Looks lived in. -- Al
 
andone more picture ;
The story behind the dio . French poilus have just arrived in the trenches to relieve their comrades and already they are under a "gaz attack".They did not have time to store their supplies or to get rid of their "paquetage". I will have some professional pictures taken next week and then all the details in the dio will show(there are a lot). My camera is not good enough to show you all the details which are incorporated in this small dio (21cmx11cm)

Guy, always loved your diorama's and the attention to detail. Your terrain is just stunning. Great job. Chris
 
They are very nice figures. I have them and feel that they are pretty impressive.
 
Put some of Jenkins French with them and you could have a great dio of a French trench section If you want a bigger dio.Mark
 
The JJD French Poilu and the TGM Poilu are pretty similar in size, no real difference. Both are a little larger than the ONWTC Poilu from some years back. They all display pretty well together. -- Al
 
thanks for all the nice comments and the "likes"
