Hi guy,s
This time back to the Sudan sun was shining for a short time when I got home so the Sudan collection were taken from the cabinet for some pics.
You may remember in the Film Khartoum starring Chalrton Heston one of the opening shots was of the Egyptains marching through the desert with the Mahdists waiting to pounce so here we go.

Spent most of today flooring the loft at my daughter's place. This has cheered me up no end - great stuff. Those hills are really good. Make them yourself? (That's a hint for a 'how to do it" by the way . . .)
ReplyDeleteThe figures? Very nicely done, but I'm still amazed at the quantities.
Gaz.
Great photos of fantastic figures and like Crazy Joe said there's so many of them, but I guess that's what Gen Gordon thought as well!!
ReplyDeleteThanks guy's
ReplyDeleteThe hills are Kallistra on top of TSS so no credit to me for that but I am going to have a go at making some in the near future.
As for the quant's always liked the Peter Gilder take on building armie's.
Cheer's

Keep those Sudan shot coming...love the figures, love the period. Shame you are not in Australia, we could have some great Sudan games and run some interesting campaigns, with yours and my collection. Thanks for placing the images on the blog.
