It would be a pleasure. But we have to talk about the modalities. I have to prepare a general base to put in the road parts. So I need yours before or you have to give an exact description to prepare a free space. But anyway - it would be great to have this part and the period you are talking about is very interesting. Thank you in advance!!

Hello friends, it is nice to see some progress. Eric-Jan, I really like your topic and it is so cool to have a real episode of history in the GB. I am waiting for you parcel.

And Peter, I hope you are getting better. The tank looks good so far. Hope to see some updates soon.

Finished the tank and the figures. Next time I hope to show you the finished vignette.

The tank: Painted, wash with diluted black wash, and Tamiya weathering master to make it look rough.

The figures:

Well I hope you like it so far. I have some more pictures and blabla on the BLOG!

Yes I know! I'm to lazy to copy and past everything here! :-D

Pretty cool, Peter. Can you tell me which unit this firefly belongs to? Only personal interest...

To the generell situation. After Eric-Jans Arnhem Zoo dio arrived. I have more than 50% at home.

Andrea, Dalibor and Eugenij are going to sent their part, like Peter.

Now I need to know if Paul and Markus will participate. They have not finally said something. If you want to make a surprise, please PM me. I need to know because I have to add the parts in the correct historic row.

And it would be good to know when you, Mickey, plan to send me you part. The base is fantastic loke the figures so I have to make plans how to add it in the row.

Please tell me something so that I can start building the final presentation. And if there is still somebody who has an idea... it is not to late, if you hurry up. ;-)

Jan, on the building constructions they say this is a Firefly from 2nd Battaillon Coldstream Guards, Normandy, June 1944. ;-)

May I ask you where you get them? Here where I live the different 'riders' sets made by hat are impossible to find.

Thanks in advice.

Oh, and freaking looking project, I have no knowledge of the 'kiwis' at all, that's why I've never partecipated to the topic, but I really like following it :yeah:

My fault, I meant 'Tommies', whereas 'kiwi' was the nickname for the troops of other commonwealth countries... or that's what they told me at least :mrgreen:
