Well let's see. My buddy Saul Garcia asked me to do a build review on this wonderful set about a year and a half ago. If he only know how slow I really am, he might have had second thoughts! But all the work is done and I am ready to share my little adventure with you!
I am going to use the Sunken Road base as a basis for an early morning D-Day vignette where 3 paratroopers from the 82nd ariborne have surprised a speiss and his helper hauling food to their unit behind the lines. What a surprise the Para's get when they discover BEER! Unfortunatly for the Germans, the boys at Battalion don't want prisioners, but they do want the beer! I will leave it up to your imagination if the Para's pull a Lt Stone, or just let em go.
So begins my Vignette "Just the beer, sir?"

| With the base in some color it is time to add some grass and such. My Purple trees are from Michael's crafts store and are SUPPOSED to represent hydrangea. I stained the branches a dark color with inda ink, then drilled two holes in the base and secured the plants with PVA. The grass is silflor, available in the US and Canada at Scenic Express. Again it is secured to the base with PVA. |
