Cheers chaps!

I found a Rubicon furniture set which has a couple of a French style outdoor iron tables and chairs !   They should look good on the back terrace.

I will add the climbers to the pergola later to round off the garden.

Oh wow, you haven't lost your touch! Upped your game even, if I may be so bold. This is just super.

It’s a far cry from our heady 40k projects though mate....having to think smaller these days, but trying max the usage.  Plus, I think this lockdown is affecting my head!

Cheers guys.

This is the kit I’ve ordered for the chairs.



And my order from Last Valley arrived today giving me another seven feet of bocage and tree lines.



Have one last thing to do on the garden....may sit and do it tonight.  Then I need to get painting.  This weeken, I want to paint the plastic walls.  Then I may try to start painting the Fallschirmjager.  Especially as I treated myself and ordered some British infantry for my Allied force.   I also may start painting minis for some skirmishing around the Chateau....

I always paint the earth beneath it then wash where I want with watered pva before sprinkling on the grass.  Leave it to dry then scrub with coarse brush to make it stand and to brush out any clumps.  Nothing special...I suspect it’s how most do it.
