This was the kit I have chosen for my first ever attempt on a Shadow Box
1612022979230.png

With a few additions in figures and a load of ideas I have set to.
Building the kit was fun , some of the smallest PE parts I have ever encountered, in one case a set of pot handles were too much to contend with so made some Pewter replacements.

Deciding that the seating was not enough I've made some bench seating and a new table from timber and plastic section.

There will be lighting, when I'm nearer to having an idea of what and where, I'll have to send of the JS Miniature's for the lights.

In the meantime.

Hi Steve, first thoughts are some of the pe is micro, some I just couldn't cold with.
The plastic is soft so care needed removing thin parts. One of the figures , the Officer with his foot on the chair needs care when assembling, the straight leg doesn't appear to fit anywhere at first.

I hope you're offering Russian tea from that samovar, comrade Dzhon?
Neil , yes of course, what else , having just read that Russian tea is quite strong and often has vodka in , so we will get some to mix in with the tea .

I can see this turning into a typical rabble outing , may I please remind you that
falling off chairs and fighting are not allowed, drink therefore will be on ration.
