Imagine if you put this amount of energy into being a man. what society with those drives could be again. Boys simulating what real men did back in the day as equally grown but inept and completely robbed of masculinity whilst being obliviously unaware as the society your immersed in is working against you so you see no red flags to the downfall of your nature.

[@paraloidb72]

What a disappointing comment about skilled & creative work

[@gabereality4631]

I find it hilarious that you commented this. Taking a quick look into your subscriptions reveals *YOU* are subscribed to a channel called SuperTeeds, which is a Pokemon master guide. What would the men you're referring say about a grown man learning to be a Pokeman master? Oh, wait, NOTHING. Because men who aren't insecure about their masculinity don't give a FUCK about what you think or do. That's what being a man is about. Grow up teeny bopper. LMAO.

Hi Luke, I worked on the series Band of Brothers and one of the scenes I worked on was this attack on the gun emplacements, I actually recognised some of it just from this model, great work mate!

Huge thank you to all who came to say hello at Salute. It was a delight to be able to share this awesome build with so many. Particular thanks to the younger fans who sat and had such a great game with us. We also raised over £300 for charity, so thanks again to all who came by!

I'm a huge gamer and huge Band of Brothers fan.... So this just blew my mind! It's beautiful. This is art.

[@stevewade2323]

Oh hells teeth Luke, the day after I gave into the nagging and tidied up my shed, putting away all my crafting bits n bobs (i'd forgotten how big my shed is with all the space I now have) you go and release this video! Now ive got to get it all out again and clutter it all up again. Jeeez my wife came in to see what all the 'ooohs and ahhhs' I was making was all about. Little did she know my secret isnt some dodgy website its a bloke from down the road who sends my imagination into overdrive and has me making things for the grandkids. Fantastic build mate!!!!

Incredible Luke, absolutely incredible. Glad your ethos and learning is paying dividends to you mate. This needs to be played on and enjoyed. All the very best.

[@oldschoolfrp2326]

Beautifully detailed build, Definitely going to catch everyone’s eye across the room at the shows

[@Vonfluff]

That was the best 18 minutes I've spent on any media this year. Not only beautiful but practical and inspiring as well. Absolutely stunning. If there are any idiots moaning about you using your products in this video then I'd like to relate my experiences. In the last few weeks, I have spent loads of hours creating my own flock, clump etc based on your videos. I reckon that I have invested over 30hrs in total and I'm still nowhere near as happy with the results as I am with ones that I got with a bag of base-ready. Looking forward to seeing part 2.

[@kaz9357]

Your terrain videos are amazing, and the build videos you make are super interesting. Add in the fact that you always bring up supporting local stores and expanding the perception of gaming, its the reason I started buying your products, and will continue to buy my basing products from you (I'm to much of a noob to do terrain lol). Looking forward to what you have coming next.

[@EricsHobbyWorkshop]

The tufts are so great. Gorgeous work on this Luke! To get such lovely results and still have it be so durable is no easy feat! You are terrain mastermind man

[@matthewwilkinson4781]

I was having kind of a crappy day. This really made me happy for some reason! Thanks! The board looks amazing!

[@RPArchiveOfficial]

Stunning. Beautiful work Luke, especially on the ground around the trees, such a nice realistic look.

[@Gool349]

this is an incredible table! the close ups look just like a photo of somewhere in Normandy, absolutely astonishing!

[@alexandervamp1]

Well done diorama effect, usable alone or with other boards for a full area game board. Again well done. To go into such detail and make it user friendly is a chore that gives both players and makers a whole new aspect to the gaming community.

[@themim66]

What a video, what a project, what a board….awesome job, wish I had the space for something like that. Such a work of art Luke, I know what’s on my wish list if I ever have a gaming room. 👏👏👏👏

Wow! You’re Definitely raising the bar, here, man - those fields are beautiful! You need to send Zorpazorp a giant sheet or three of those massive hand-made tufts for his various Rohan boards, heh. 😬

I've struggled with mental-health for years. A huge part of doing this project has been about healing. The idea came out of a very dark place during Lock-down isolation last year. And the discovery of this channel, among others, was a huge help. And it is why I asked Luke to build it..

What a video and what a build. Great to see the whole thing come together from start to finish, must take a lot of time/effort to make. Definitely recognisable from Band of Brothers, think I’ve watched the series about 20 times. Loved the time lapse of adding the tufts. Very inspiring stuff. That giant foam cutter was ridiculous 🤣

[@nunyahbuidness4010]

[@Digitalfiendscom]

This is an absolutely incredible table. You've come such a long way from when I first started watching the channel; not that you were bad or anything before but you can see how your growing experience has benefited your projects. I've always felt that a great immersive wargaming table can really enhance the enjoyment of whatever games you're playing on it. I'm not on of those people that enjoys playing with household items on the table (you know, empty cans, jugs, etc) - that just kills gaming for me. Tables like this one are where it's at! :) Great work.

[@anthonyclem9585]

As always, excellent craftsmanship. I'm always impressed. I'm presently working on a diorama...the Alamo. I'm using 54 mm figures and intend to build the entire layout from raw materials. The big challenge right now is painting the 1500 Mexican soldiers and Texian defenders. Of course, my skills no where approach yours but, it's a labor of love and occupies my retirement years. Keep up the good work.

[@negotiableaffections]

Incredible work Luke, very impressive.

[@bakersmileyface]

I think it's fantastic. I used to do this kind of thing when I was a kid with my Grandad. Me and him made an Omaha beach defence line which I still have in my attic along with all of the soldiers and tanks I painted and built back then. It was not quite as big as this, but I'm pretty sure we were using a smaller scale so we managed to fit much more on it. We didn't have the details yours does here, but it still looked pretty impressive and had a cool bunker complex. My Grandad still does this kind of stuff, but for his train set. His attic has a train track and a train station which encompasses the length and width of the house with two complimentary towns in it full of little details like this has. Been absolutely years since I've seen something like this and it makes me want to get back and find some old airsoft kits. Thanks for the memories and giving me something to do! As for what I think of this, I'm obviously nitpicking here because this is fantastic and not something I've done since I was around the age of 10, but that tuff grass isn't the same colour as the rest of the foliage. I know how long it took you to get that sorted and how long it would take to get the colour matched, but that's my only nitpick with this set. It looks incredible, great work

[@bakersmileyface]

@@GeekGamingScenics Yeah of course you're right. But I meant that just the tuff is a different colour and that makes it stand out as being distinctly different from the grass. If some of the regular grass took the same shade as the tuff, then it would've blended in together more I suspect. Or maybe I'm wrong. That's just what I think at least.
