Animals? I don't mean like Alan Price, I mean oxen, mules, Zulu cattle ... and of course Lion the dog!

I'd like to see some tutorials from Paul (you know, him with the workshop) about how to do wadis, high African grass, thron bushes etc..

Now I know what Santa must feel like (no, not the girth thing...).

If you think today was good, wait for next week!
Cheers,

Produced in conjunction with Empress Miniatures this will be quite something to behold, if I do say so myself...


Not only do the Zulus look terrific, that Rorke's Drift is a MUST OWN! And as it's made out of wood, it will be easier to light on fire, just like the one! :twisted:

USUTHU!
Take car. Go to Mum's. Kill Phil - "Sorry." - grab Liz, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over. How's that for a slice of fried gold?

I've got to say I really enjoyed the Rorke's Drift buildings and the other goodies I've painted for the range so far. With all this research I've been doing I'm gagging to see what else is coming out.

Plastic NNC in January!

Still loads more to unveil - wait until next week!

Lol.

A couple of questions:

1. Is the building fully painted? Is that the way it comes? If so, amazing!

2. When does all this stuff come out?

1. It says it comes unpainted (fortunately, otherwise it would be way out of my budget).
2. Not soon enough.
