Terrific report with great photos of a lovely table.

Many thanks for your nice remarks.
Figures are all plastic, as I worked out, if I bought these in metal, they would cost me an arm and a leg.
Figures are Hat and a couple of Zvezda

That’s because I’ve spent a lot of time doing head swaps on the figures.
I wasn’t happy having the figures all looking the same.
