I enjoyed every minute of this build..... even the figures. They are far from perfect but I'm happy enough with them for my first serious attempt.

I dedicate this diorama to our Canadian brothers, 45,400 of whom were killed in action fighting the Nazis. We owe them a debt that can never be paid.

That looks absolutely brilliant Al, a complete triumph. Time for a brew.  2337884168
The figures look great and give the diorama a real boost. They bring the whole model to life in my opinion.

Due to my wife's ill health, this will be the the last from me for some time I think.

Thanks Kats. Dios can be frustrating and rewarding at one and the same time. I really enjoyed this none.
