Posing!
Figure needs a coat of matt varnish and some dry brushing. Will be adding some foliage asap.

Meanwhile, while the tree and foliage vegetate, here is something along the same lines.
This is again in 1/32 scale and is a white metal kit of the Douglas Model R with a sidecar.
White metal, mmmmmmmmmmmmm, well it is not my preferred medium it was the only kit available. The detail is good but maybe the parts appear a bit clunky compared to the Tommie's War model.

Oh, back to Zulu again very quickly; "well done Aardendorf, we'll make an Englishman of you yet"

It looks very industrial anyway Zak.  Just has a certain feel of 'proper' about it, even at that stage.

Here we are with the model and figure on a base.

Agreed.  Nice and simple - it works a treat.  Will you be bringing it to the December meeting?
