Hi all - finally finished. A quick recap: the idea was to create a small dio which could include as many of the well known facet of the Western Front as possible, such as:
Front line trenches with fire-step - tick,
communication trench - tick,
sandbags - tick,
barbed wore - tick,
the same trenches being used by both sides - the many German signs show this is a German trench, but the one British sign shows it was once used by the British
British army - the Mark IV British tank,
German army - the tank has been captured and in in German colours,
French army - French infantry figures,
gas - the figures are all wearing gas masks,
shelling and destruction - destroyed tank, broken trench,
'decapitated' trees - tick
soldiers going 'over the top' - tick
dug out shelter - the doorway to one is in the junction of the 2 trenches.
Here are a few photos:
