What's new on the Peter Pig website

[Colonel Kilgore]

Excellent - I'll get to see them first 

Sorry you won't be clubbing this weekend, Martin. We have been running a virtual pub trip at work on Fridays: we each sit at home and drink while maintaining social distancing via a video call..

More stealth releases from the pig sty (must thing of a new term - that hardly sounds flattering!): Early War German prime MG34 teams, and a re-mastered "whole war" team of German Assault Engineers (the latter were predictable, as I've recently bought a pack of the old ones  )

Maison de cochon?

I like "cochonnerie"

Julie put them on today.
As I am busy sculpting nw packs they are not being released quickly as mould making has taken a back seat to production work.

I will get them photographed this week too.


Listening to "The Grey man" whilst sculpting. Good action stuff. Similar to Jack Reacher (which incidentally is now not being written by Lee Child anymore!!!)

House of Pig eh.............

Cochonnerie? Je suis époustouflé!

I hope that cochonnerie is an attempt at Franglais?! As I really think it is quite uncalled for describing Martin's shed as 'junk food'*. Tantamount to fighting talk sir!


* The analogy may not be totally unfair, as the shed output is moreish, just as junk food can be...

After a discussion with our French neighbour over an aperitif in the garden at a social distance she did not have any translation for 'pig sty'.

The nearest she had 'Souete de cochon' or 'cochon souette' but these so thought were patois for our region.

[Colonel Kilgore]

Les,

I think "porcherie" would be the direct translation for pig sty?

PP HQ may of course merit a rather grander title...

It's nice to see that the SCW bomb slingers are now available for sale on the PP website. I looking forward to photos in due course, but don't want to distract Martin from his righteous path of sculpting those long-awaited German paras!

Simon

[Colonel Kilgore]

The SCW bomb-slinger pack photo is now up, as well as some more German early war troops - infantry (finishing things off for the time being?) as well as the start of the new range of Early War paras 

[martin goddard]

There are several other packs for various ranges in preparation.
They are waiting for some more paras to slip through.
As a teaser; one of them is a WW1 armoured car.
