That is bloody superb Sir. Love the colours of the brick and stonework on the hospital and storehouse buildings.
Hope to see some more pics with some Zulus assaulting them barricades

Your buildings are great.
In fact the best I have ever seen.
Well done.

PS, more photos please, if you have them.

Those Drift buildings are excellent. Are they scratch built?

Lovely work. I particularly like the detail of the  redcoat on the barrel and pith helmet on the crate.

Thanks to everyone for the great comments. The buildings are scratchbuilt. I used balsa wood and extruded foam. The brickwork and door detail is just etched in the foam with a pen, a nice simple method. The thatch is towelling cut in strips, dipped in PVA and laid on, then combed whilst still wet. I also made the cookhouse, ovens and latrine. I'll try and sort some more piccies  ;)
