Good evening Backers!

Juat a very brief update tonight. 

Kickstarter has sent over the funds this week. This means we can start the logistics of having your pledges cast.

Well we did it!!!! HUGE thanks to all of our pledgers for believing in us enough to pledge their hard earned cash.

A special thanks to Michael Blake who was the first and last pledger. Clever boy.

We are going to have a few days off over this Easter weekend and wait for KS admin to catch up with various things and then start to send you information regarding the kickstarter. 

Time for a well earned cup of tea. Phew!!!!

Paul, Christine and Paul.

Well here we are close to the end of this amazing experience and time, if you have now already done so, to pledge before the fate of time brings the operation to an end.

To finish a last look at some of the figures as painted by the highly skilled Dags, huge thanks to him for rushing things through for us. Great job. You the pledger will of course get the fun of painting them yourselves. Get practising that cammo for the Denison smock and remember it was created by using buckets and mops to paint onto the material so everyone was unique. You cannot go wrong really.  

A final huge thanks from us before the end although you will of course be hearing from us after with the details of the ongoing operation.

Luv,

Paul, Christine

 and Paul.

Well in the last hours of the Arnhem Heroes Kickstarter you lovely people have continued to pledge your all and for this we thank you.

Looks like XXX Corps is not going to make it and some of the guys will not get out but we all have a great smile on our faces and are proud of what we have achieved with the beginning of this range know that it will develop. 

We cannot thank you all enough and there is still plenty of time to get in with the last pledges before we close down.

'God Save the King. '

Christine, Paul, and Paul.

Well here we are guys and gals. Its been a busy two weeks and you guys have been fantastic. We cannot thank you enough for supporting our dream and therefore ensuring that we can also start on planning the next one which we hope will be in October of this year.

Already made are various types of drop canister and supply hamper. Various types of LMG for arming recce JEEPS and dismounted figures, so Freddie Gough and his team will make an appearance. Plus we had best learn some Polish. 

But enough about the future lets concentrate on today, the last day. Here we are and if you have not backed our Arnhem Heroes KS or are wondering if you need to up your pledge then here is the time. Once the hours have passed the opportunity has so like a good paratrooper don't think about it just jump. 

Huge thanks,

Paul, Paul, & Christine.
