Vive la France! Lego World War Two MOC

Hello everyone! Today we have a fun scene inspired by a scene from the Longest Day. During the shelling of The Normandy beaches in the Longest Day, a patriotic Frenchman begins waving a French flag out of his window. In spite of the shelling and explosions, he continues waving his flag! We somewhat recreated this scene here, where a Frenchman is waving a flag to honor the liberation of his village by American soldiers.

What are we working on right now? Lego WW2 MOC

Hello everyone! Today we are going to give you a quick update on what we are currently working on with our Lego's. Right now, we are building a big World War Two Lego MOC of a French village/countryside. Some of the builds are inspired by a World War Two movie called the Longest Day. We also plan to add a gun emplacement similar to the one seen in The Guns of Navarone. We also wanted to ask our followers for some suggestions. If you have any ideas of a cool World War Two scene,  or build, or character from a movie, book, or real-life just leave your suggestion in the comments! Thank you!

AMBUSH!

Hello everyone! Today we have another Lego World War 2 post.  The cast of this post are: a German Stug 4 tank destroyer, 3 allied soldiers, and a U.S. Stuart light tank. 
Here is a level picture from the Stug 4's view. The German Stug is hiding in some foliage just to the right of a road the Allies travel on, the Allied reconnaissance patrols saw nothing and deemed travel safe... But they missed something. 
Here is a view from the Stuart tank. Can you spot the German Stug? It looks quite like a rock to me!
Here is a picture of the Stug, complete with two external gas barrels,  supply boxes, and spare tracks. 
Bereit? Richten Sie! Feuer!
Here is an epic picture of the allied tank and soldiers. Thanks for reading! Enjoy!
