Dear Forum members,

Here's an update on my Plancenoit project. I've added two new sections of ground (to the east) and worked on Young Guard and Prussians. Hope you like them!

Somehow I can't stop looking at it….. bravo!

All I can say is, "WOW!!! That is definitely a labor of love, patience, and perseverance.

The Eastern approaches to Plancenoit and the South East area around the Lasne are never shown in models….until now. We do not quite expect the whole approach march from Wavre, but thus is pretty impressive.

Down around Papelotte and Smohain is equally largely overlooked and, if anything more challenging to model. Many a sunken lane, even to this day.

The sheer scale of this project is increasingly apparent and so impressive. Let us pray for the resumption of cross Channel trade in metal figures.

Wow – great work!

A labor of love. Thanks for posting.

Thanks All! Liam, a little known fact that I wasn't previously aware of is that the eastern approaches to Plancenoit had some fishponds fed by the Lasne Brook.

I love the casualty figures. Seems like you've got almost every Airfix casualty figure out there, not counting the conversions from standing figures. Great conversions!

Thanks Widowson, that's certainly true, the Airfix are all there, but as lead castings.

Truly outstanding work. Inspiring – and humbling! – in equal measure.

Thanks Fred, it's a bit daunting at times, but coming along nicely.
