Unfortunately…according to Mrs Digits…ithd barn ain’t big enough!

She possibly has a view to using it as a sewing basket or home for the cat?

Interesting about your cousin Joan. Certainly shows there's no glass ceiling in a grave.

ithd? International Tom Hanks Day? Apparently that is a thing.

Errr….fat fingers.

Picked up a sprue if the new winter Fallschirmjagers as I am in need of a few more winter Germans. As paratroopers they don’t excite me, but with a little tiny tweak (heads) I can mix them into my eclectic winter German chaps easily enough as a few guys lucky enough to secure some semi decent winter garb.

The two guys in the foreground though had the criss cross pants removed and replaced with legs from the SS sprue…and I rather like the outcome.

I may get another sprue……

They look good - as do the graves and the orthodox priest. Great stuff.

Thanks!

So, I’m assuming they may have kept rabbits? Either way, I need some clutter for a few back yards…chicken coup, hutches etc.

Will pop in bunnies when painted! 😀

Mmm, hasenpfeffer for dinner. Rabbit is a fine meal.

Be vewy, vewy quiet - we're hunting wabbits....

It all looks grand, but I really dig the priest with the PPSh...In the name of the father, and of the son, and of the PPSh.....

Looks to me like he’s holding it like a Stratocaster…….sees himself something of a rockstar!

Maybe he leads a congregation of militant orthodox evangelicals....

I've just caught up with this thread and I have to say it's amazing. Love the Church and grave markers but the Priest is a wonderful addition. Great work.

it is literally the opposite

Can't speak to hassenpfeffer itself - never had it. But I've had rabbit and it is exceptionally good to eat - and if you do a little research, it is one of the healthier and more environmentally friendly meats you can eat.

But back to the rabbit hutches, nice work, Digits.

there's a report of one of the northern Canada trading companies that lived off rabbits and the low fat content leads to protein poisoning. It's fine occassionally, but you cannot live off it.

Digits · « **Reply #223 on:** October 15, 2024, 04:32:55 PM »

I think the morale was you can’t live off rabbit alone….

Anyway, back on topic

The priest has taken up residence and is ready to rock’n’roll!

Rock on!

What did you use for the gauze on the rabbit pens?
