This could really be an interesting element for a future diorama if you are so inclined Ben. I'll watch with interest. :thumb2:
    Its certainly a well captured moment, i will look into a diorama of sorts as he definitely will need a back drop the more i think of it, thanks hopefully i can make a reasonable job of it :smiling3:

        Nice concept. I can see him resting by the dispersal hut next to the scramble bell with its iconic message……Don’t just yell, ring like hell……
