Le Bulletin de la Societe Geographique

Hello,

Last year,  we inaugurated the first issue of the "Bulletin de la Societe Geographique".

It's a french "newspaper" about colonial adventures, that's why you could be interested. sorry for people who knew this information.

Visit the issue 4, my favourite  :wink:   and click on the balloon...

That might prove fateful for a hot air vehicle! :lol:

Magnifique! You´ve managed to find a striking compromise between aesthetics and practicality (ie, the gondola being large enough for 3(4?) figures, yet looking good with the rest of the balloon).

The site and the balloon construction are impressive. I scanned a lot of the other sections as well and your games look great.

Thanks for sharing.

Marvellous  :o  - I have to get such a ballon made.

A Question to everybody: Is there a site somewhere with tips for constructing a zeppelin?

You may have mentioned it somewhere already, if there is, but then I have missed it...

I'm not sure but i think it's Dixon

I have ordered them anyway, and I'll try to post a pic when I get them (cause it's really hard to find one on the net   :wink: )

Hope that helps (despite my poor english writing...)

I am seriously contemplating on getting some of those French foreign legion miniatures. I just love the way they look.

I quite like Dixon's range anyway.

yes, it's Dixon. (these are my figs)
Figs with a "little black bag" on the chest are foreign legion and must be painted in white/sand colours.
the others are "troupes de marine" and are generally dressed in blue.

But i prefered consider all of them as foreign legion.  :?
