Time to have another go at some figures!
Could look something like this?
The victims
The base for a base?
and how to
The plan is
Monty and Churchill walking past an Arnhem sign post, the Horrocks and daughter figures will be on the other side as part of the paparazzi group taking photos and film footage of the recreated fictional moment, Arnhem Take 2!
I have 3 other figure projects on the back burners, as I really do intent to be figure focused
Role on the new GB

Hi Adam
The book is really useful, reasonably priced at £20
I also got the 2 companion books on trees too.
And the Terrain Modelling DVD by Richard Windrow
As with all these type of books and DVD's, the acid test is,
"can you do it too?"
We will see
It is straight forward with simple instructions, easy to find materials and lots of photos.
I have everything collected up ready to roll
Lets see what we can create for this GB

Looking forward to progress!

Hi Steve,
So is this going to be like an alternate reality scenario?
I've been making my way through the Stargate SG-1 series again (this is fourth time around) and there is a few alternate reality episodes

Hi Woody
Way too complex
Alternative, as in, I don't think it ever happened?
Churchill and Monty walking past an Arnhem Sign, together.
Take 2 as in it didn't happen as Monty planned, ie "A Bridge to Far"
I will add the reviews for the Road to Victory figure set, where the General Horrocks figure is described as "nothing like!"
review
So, next best thing use the figures in a different way
As part of the "alternative" is a crowd of "paparazzi" why not have a director and assistant!
Job done, both the the 2 redundant figures back in the game
Cunning plan, but needs paint to make it work!
I will start with the base, as it is another part of scenario building I haven't mastered, yet!
See what happens
Thanks for popping in Raoul, lets see what happens
More soon?
Regards
Steve H
