Lovely job! Well done.

Do the crates come with the Thumper, or are they from elsewhere?

The miniature fan in me says, "shucks, I always wanted to do that."

The retired Marine artilleryman in me grumbles about ammo pit SOPs.

I really gotta tamp down that latter persona.

Retired now?

And yeah, I have seen eyes glaze over at the table when I explain how the artillery I have on the table would not really follow the procedures the game puts me through to use artillery.

For four days shy of two years now.  Also, retirement hasn't afforded me the luxury of working on minis to the degree the OP has.

Well, kick your heals up . . . its sort of funny, its the only job I know where nearly everyone who gets out can pretty much rattle off how long its been since they got out.

Did you do the goatee/beard or the long hair?

I hear ya! I always feel the same every time I see a diorama like that, but it looks cool so I do it anyway!

Thanks for all the positive comments. The ammo boxes were from another company which I cannot recall right now.
