Cheers all  :)

and I think we all anticipate the revelation of a complete table of throughly English suburbia being trampled beneath so many tiny, marching boots.  :D

That will be one of the games, yes  :D

I've got a little campaign noted down and will write it properly soon enough and post it here.
cheers

James

Thanks  :)

Started on house number two. Fortunately, there are plenty of little Georgian villas dotted around our local area that are perfect for inspiration. Doing the enclosures for gardens will be a bit more difficult although I've got a book or two on the subject which will hopefully help.

River sample is done and I think it works well enough to start making proper ones.

The proper ones will have yacht varnish on them but they'll have to dry out in the garage as I'm not allowed stuff like that in the house  :D

Great idea to use clear acrylic for the surface of the water. Looks excellent  8)

looking good- is this inspired by the "invasion literature" of the Victorian and Edwardian era

Cheer mate  :)

It certainly is but I’ll be going a little bit further most likely.
