Just a little clutter / on board cargo to gather and will get them finished.   

I just received a small set of Vietnamese civilians from Etsy…a little large so would need to get them scaled back if I ordered a second set….but includes a pair of useful boat handlers!

Very nice.
Is there going to be a puppy..?

Took me a while to realise the reference to the puppy! 🫤

Yup, I could do that I suppose…..though a piglet could be a good proxy!

There's always one bloke in any crowd who'll shout out 'show us yer puppies'.  :D

A Piglet will inevitably lead to adding a Tigger and and then an Eeyore, then it's going to look like Noah's Ark. Or in this case Noah's Arc Light . ;)

Already have a Tigger!


Still waiting for tyres to arrive to finish the boats, but have just had productive ten minutes filling a few acorn cup baskets!  Will dash a little paint on the “ fruit” when the superglue is dry.   I love the effect of these simple produce baskets.

That's rather clever, I like those. I hope either they survive or some fragment of this thread survives well into the future to mislead yet unborn historians that it was not the needs of the Royal Navy or the Industrial Revolution that ravaged Englands mighty forests of oak but wargamers.  :D

I also like the fact that your mousepad contains an near identical image of what our dog looks like when she smells roast chicken and understands she is going to get a bit. Literally flies over the steps all wild eyed, she's even the same Trumpian colour.

Given that the acorns will start dropping in about a month in my area, I am definitely stealing this idea for baskets.

No acorns in my part of the world - epic idea and execution!

It’s a puppy, man! They were trying to save a puppy!!!

To be fair…I saw this on a link in Barage mins so I can’t claim credit for the idea.   I do rather like them though!
