    I guess its really a choice between changing the figure or the trench base when it comes down to it. Maybe a typical semi-permanent French gabion style trench to tie in with the early uniform?

    Hi Mark,
    This company is not in existance anymore. Nothing posted in over 2 years and website defunct.
    If your looking for a particular kit there are some here but a lot out of stock.
    cheers

    There weren't really any trenches as such in the early war. There would have been simple scrapes (quickly excavated positions to provide a bit of shelter), and there was a lot of use of ditches and natural barriers, for example:

    There's a nice photo on this website https://www.vox.com/2014/12/25/7448471/christmas-truce-1914 of a French officer in 1914 peering out of a muddy ditch. I think your figure would work well with that kind of groundwork.

    But again, it's your figure, you do what you want ;)

    So a simple scrape or muddy ditch it will be then :)
