Title: Indochine Francaise
Post by: italwars on November 12, 2016, 06:31:04 PM

while surfing on the web i find those beautiful colour plates of 19 c. Vietnamese soldiers that fought also VS French..so a must for Colonial gamers that like me love sideshows and French Colonial.
there is also a reference of Paris Quay Branly Museum for the full book with the totality of plates..but i was'nt able to download it

Elephant mounted Legionairres!  Someone must do some - and in 15 mm you oversized figure sods!   :(      lol

Actually, might be a pretty easy conversion - but sure sounds like fun. 

Love the bright colors, very cool and not what most of us would expect, I suspect.

The London Warroom used to do them. But the stopped doing business several years ago. Don't know what happened to them after that.

Usually ranges pop again in new hands..above all 28mm---maybe some US menbers can help us in the search for those exotic types
