No, I haven't. I think these figures may be too small for that ?

First chance I've had to have a good look at this thread. I'm so envious of people like you @Scaleyback who have the imagination to create things like these. I could look at the model figures all day but never come up with an idea for how to display them.
It must be tempting to keep buying more and more of them. Though I don't suppose they take up much space to store

Thanks Anne for your nice comments. My wife helps me with ideas, I say " what about this" and we 'discuss'
Increasingly difficult to buy new figures now, UK stockists only keep a fraction of the Preiser/Noch catalogue. More choice in Germany where
both these makers originate. Sadly p&p can double the UK cost.
Storage ? certainly not a problem currently 2 x 10" x 8" plastic boxes.

Good stuff as ever - love 'em.
Have put reminder in my phone to show Mrs SD when she gets back from her Covid Booster volunteering.
She loves the Little People too.
Keep up the great work - please.

@Scaleyback I sort of don't want to post this because your scenes are great and I don't want to influence your imagination, but you might find this interesting. There's a guy in Japan doing a similar thing to you but he's currently stuck in quarantine. So he's got his wife to send him some figures and he's making up scenes using only what he can find in his hotel room. The thing is, as he makes each scene he's leaving it in place so the effective size of his room is getting smaller and smaller. I'm not sure that he's even got anywhere left to sleep...

The 'Little People' will be going on holiday for a while after this visit. The overworked fellow who attends to their 'needs' has got a big indoor decorating job that will keep him fully occupied 
We hope to meet you again post Xmas and New year.
We are going to miss you all . . . .
