Hi Marc,

ahhh Yes, I was going to post this here on PF as an MFCA preview tonight or tomorrow since not everyone has Facebook. ...so, thanks.

The vignette you see above is split down the right side of the ladder. so, you can buy the machine gunner vignette, or the infantry vignette separately. The price will be $45.ooUSD each. That way, you can bite off a little at a time as the bidget allows rather than all at once =)).

I'll have a limited number at the trade stand at MFCA

Hope you like it.
Paul.

Hi Matt,

Yes, you are understanding correctly.

You see, having just come off the popular 1/9 British and German Trench Raider busts I hatched the idea and approached Carl to take the German Trench Raider bust and make a full figure of it in 75mm (like he did for the Stretcher Bearer some time ago - a bust and then a 75mm figure of said bust) but on a little trench vignette. Then I suggested adding some 'companion figures' on their own vignette that when pushed together would create a larger scene. (I had done a 120mm Machine Gunner some years ago (sculpted by Jim Holloway) but never released it. I did it several years before Jeff Shiu did his. But, when he released his I shelved mine. ...coincidentally they were almost exactly the same - probably done/patterned after the same popular photo.) Soooo, one of the companion figs I suggested was that 'ole machine gunner. Carl took the ball and ran with it and generated what you see. What you see here is two separate vignettes pushed together to make one. The infantryman going over the top on the ladder is a stand alone vignette, as is the machine gunner. The split is down the right side of the ladder. The trench raider throwing the grenade (the original figure around which everything is based) is yet to come as well as 1 or two more after that for a total of 4 or 5 separate vignettes that can be combined to create one larger one.

Thanks to EVERYONE for ALL the POSITIVE feedback =)!

Enjoy!!!
Paul
