march 2007. The basement is ready and drying
July 2007. About 2000men and horses are ready. Only problem is that I cannot deside if I choose for one battlefield 200x240cm with La Haye Sainte central in the middle, or I choose for a construction with drawers, so that I can make in the future another Waterloo under or above the one which I am going to build soon.

august 2007, start building the battlefield Waterloo 4. |
| I build a woorden frame with four wheels. Total size 180x240cm. Afterwards, I am glad that I took these sizes, otherwise it would have been impossible to reach to the middle of the farm. |

Me on the job...

After drying and painting, the grass follows...
The battle took place in june, the corn stood high in the field. To create a corn field that is thred by thousands of men, I used sisal rope.

The unraveld sisal looks like corn |
At the right side of the farm was a small kitchen garden
After a few days of hard work, everything was ready. It took a lot of work to place over 2000 men and horses....but the result...!
I painted clouds on the wall
French gunners on the hills of La Haye Sainte
French Cuirassiers charging
Dutch soldiers above..., wounded Frenchmen under...
Charge of the Scotsch Grey's above. Under La Haye Sainte under attack
