Hi Nigel - I'm just catching up here and saw your posts. Amazing looking project, and very ambitious. I sure like your approach, as it looks like it'll be quite the showpiece when done, and so indicative of war in the trenches...very iconic. Looking forward to watching this one indeed!
Cheers,
Gary

This is going to be one great muddy diorama!

Loving the layout.

Thanks for the encouragement Neil, Steve, JM, Gary and Adrian. I've spent a lot of time thinking about the layout so it's very helpful to get some feedback that it's going in the right direction.

I've started painting the figures, so will post some updates when I make progress.....

I’m following now! Great stuff!

I hope I can do it justice Andy. Your book has been got off the shelf, I've just ordered some copper wire to make some screw pickets, will be trying to make some cigarette packets and barbed wire reels using your methods.

WOW! Terrific start. I'll be watching this one progress . Looking fwd to seeing the next steps.

Fantastic lay out Nigel, you'll need a large area to highlight the devastation of the Western Front, a tight composition just wouldn't have had the same impact. Looking forward to the painting.

Thanks much for sharing this epic project.

If only there was a way to incorporate a “mini” smoke/fog machine in the base.

Thanks for the encouragement everyone. I'm busy painting the figures at the moment which will take a while, I'll post some updates when I have made some serious progress.

Oh for the days of smoking when we could puff a bit of cigarette smoke over the finished work as we took pictures.....
