Hi Daniel,
I have just spent the best part of an hour going over your blog. Blown away with this build of yours. I caught sight of it when on MM but with the turmoil of that fiasco but lost touch of it. Found it again when finding my way round our new home.
Am I correct in assuming that you have used a mix of 1/35 and 1/32 scale kits and figures. I see that you have used a lot of dio detail kits to.
Going to be a pain now...:smiling4::smiling4::smiling4: Could you post some of the names of the manufactures of the products that you have used in building the base.

Its a stunning build and as John suggested earlier in the blog, you have to show this in June at the model show.

I'm actually in the process of putting together a desert dio where LRDG / SAS patrols are in a maintenance/resupply area. Like your idea of building, painting of the kits and figures first then building the base.

Cheers Mike :sleeping::sleeping::sleeping:
