Command post build..

Dal suggested I should post the build of this command post ..
So here it is..

Excellent superb work, looks fantastic Dean, well done

That is a terrific how to build! A lot of work went into that mate and it shows! The end product really is something to behold!

Clever stuff R.G, well done

Fantastic and informative thread....I love the behind the scenes stuff.

Fantastic piece.

...and a build time under 3 years?...amazing!

WOW!! that is awesome mate! Looks so real

Very impressive,looks great. It's going to be fun using this in dio's .
Just one question,where do you keep it ? It looks huge.

It all comes apart , it all screws together in sections in to a bag and stores flat

This is superb Dean, love all the details - very realistic dio!

Love this Dean,
really great how to shots. Like the chaps say some really great work . I managed a cardboard template of my Strongpoint . I was thinking about the storage aspect /flat pack element and now have a great model to follow !!

As SKJ has said - we would have all loved one of these to play with as a kid !! - next Hougemont ?

Cheers

I saw your cardboard template over on hq.. it looked great.. it gave me the inspiration to do my one , have a go ,

Hi Dean

will do if its like any of my DIY there may be a few oops that didn't go as planned and 'light cussing " involved -

Also just wanted to say the Infantry & the Para's are looking really good - the Dragon gear does look good on a VAM

take care
Steve

That is amazing! It would make for a great Normandy or Market Garden scenes. That upper window is crying out for a sniper or machine gun!

Thanks Steve... " light cussing" ..yes I also did a bit of that during my build....ha ha..
I'm sure you'll make a good job , if I can make a reasonable effort. I'm sure you can..

Skilled work there! I wish I had the patience to make something similar to that as my MAM HQ.

Nicely done!

Thanks guys ..

This build is amazing, if only I had the skills to do something like this

Brilliant work Dean!!!

Thanks for posting the progress pics. I always enjoy seeing how a project is made.

I'd say that work area has seen a few projects!
