Looking forward to seeing this.

Also reminded me "Cockleshell Heroes" was a film that failed to get a mention in the War films thread.

Watched it the other day, while at my sons football training,managed to find a copy on line. Anyway, great film, but wished they had spent more than 15 minutes of the film on the actual raid :-)

Base has now had two thin coats of Vallejo still water added;

When finally fixed in place waves and ripples will be created with Vallejo water effects.

Build of the canoe and figures can be seen here - http://www.scale-models.co.uk/thread...rankton.29121/
