    Depends on the definition of "more".  I think you'll know when it's done.

    Evening all,   I was able to get the dio on my table  - then  glued down the 2nd KGL  attacking from the front entrance,   I also  de-based  some of my French  and placed them attacking  from the roadside  and also in the  Orchard  - still plenty more to come yet.

    Evening all,  a we bit more progress  today,   I  cut the bases  from the 2nd  KGL  that I had made earlier,  these will be glued inplace  tomorrow,   I also  took another pic of the resin 5th KGL  wounded,  they are slightly  larger scale than my plastic  ones  not massivley  so but  you can see  the difference, so what I think I will do  is  to display them on another  section of the farm  (like the kitchen garden)  and  keep them  slightly  distanced  from the ohers  so the scale wont be that noticable.
