The idea is to create a diorama of a lrdg/SAS unit lying up in a wadi somewhere in north Africa during ww2

I like the sound of this Colin.

Since I can't get a start on my other projected builds i thought I'd get cracking on the wadi walls I have 1 ready to pant and the carcass of a 2nd ready to be covered with cork bark

Nice idea Colin

Hi guys
I now have 2 of the 3 wadi walls ready to paint.
I have decided to make the last one out of scrumpled up newspaper and modroc fastened to the back board.
A few pics of where I am up to now.

Hi guys
A quick update once I'd built the the two small wadi sides I built the back wall using modroc and newspaper.
And since I had some leftover I extended the sides as well

Finally got the walls corrected and covered with 1st coat of kitty litter once its fully dried I'll start adding sand.
The figures I'm going to use are from masterbox which are included in the tamiya kit
Still have a few bits and pieces to finish on them!

Top work Colin.

I thought our lady Monica worked fast, but to do this from scratch in three weeks is amazing.

Well done.
