Being a mostly visual diary of the creation of high quality, historically accurate 25mm/28mm scale terrain for a refight of the battle waged by the British and Afghans on July 27th, 1880, in time for its recent 130th anniversary on Tuesday, July 27th, 2010.
Above is a pic of Lt. Colonel James Galbraith, Regimental Colour in hand, alongside Bobbie the regimental dog and some of the other "Last Eleven" survivors of the 66th (Berkshire) Regiment, making their last stand in one of the walled gardens just South of Khig village, a few miles West of the Afghan town of Maiwand.
Welcome back! Jolly fine stuff all round in those photos.
ReplyDeleteFigures, terrain, backdrop, setting and photographs all come together in a wonderful feast for the eyes.
ReplyDeleteThanks AJ, and thank you, Pat! Glad you enjoyed the pics, & appreciate you guys taking the time and effort to leave your comments! Hopefully I'll be back relatively soon to share more pics of some figures I painted this past Fall and Winter.

Gosh darn it! I love your terrain! I'm wanting to replicate that tower and your hills for my Middle Earth games.
ReplyDeleteMore thanks to will, Iain, & James! Great to see more comments hereabouts!
