Come and join the fun -- you know you want to! 

Lovely little conveyance, Michael. Almost a small diorama.

Thanks for the compliment, Ray. Now you've said that, I don't feel the need to win any prizes!

I bet i will be joining that fun soon 

I hve however committed myself to finishing one army before i start another one. I am working on the brits for normandy aswe speak, cleaning all the models and putting them on bases. I guess they will be finished in a month or 2-3...

I was inspired by a grenadier from a Richard Knőtel print of French troops entering Prussia in 1806.

Quite right! 

And I do want to include a striped mattress in a road block -- perhaps with a trouser-shaped hole in its cover!
