The vignette should be a combination of these images...:







The ensuing battle for Quebec was one of the very few in history, during which BOTH opposing commanders, British General James Wolfe...



... as well as the French commander Louis-Joseph de Montcalm-Gozon, Marquis de Saint-Véran...



... lost their lives in combat.


Cheers

Very well done. If only in my scale, 54 mm.

 

[Steve headley]

Hi Martin yes your right it was a combination of most of the art work you posted. We think it works quite well.

Jaybo sorry it’s not 54mm but it’s still quite compact and it’s easier to see for people who need it just that bit bigger. But thank you for your interest.

Very impressive sculpture..... much potential..............

Thanks Wayne, yes I suppose it could be expanded both with figures and groundwork. But we think we will leave it to the modeller to do as they wish. We will be selling them as individuals in due course as some people might just like to do parts of the set piece. So plenty of opportunities to make something different if the modeller so wishes.
