            My god that is impressive I thought I was looking at a real picture at first, incredible work on that water. Reminds me of apocalypse now.


            This is a perfect example of how a decent set of photos take the model to another level, I need to find the build thread now.


            Cheers

              Top notch


              Regards

                  I pressed for the muddy delta scene. I imagined a dirty river with the boat speeding along the bank with trees in the background, but this; this is AWESOME. Look at that water splashing up against the steps as the wake hits the shore. Wow, just amazing Ron.

                            What brilliant posts about my model from my mates on here!


                            Thank you all so much for taking the time to post your comments. I'm really chuffed by the contents.....


                            One question from BBdave.......Dave, the river water is just children's cheap acrylics painted over with household varnish.


                            Once again, thanks all for your great posts.

                              They're all well-earned Ron.


                              The only thing that detracts from this is the lack of figures. Considering how long the war lasted and the number of nations involved, I find it very strange that there is such a shortage of available figures. I mean, there's no end of 'planes and armour and ships - you woulda thunk somebody would be making figures to go with them all.

                                Cracking work as usual Ron but I would not expect anything less.
