Post by: RichBliss on 24 February 2017, 04:28:08 PM: Thought I'd post a picture to introduce myself. I'f been doing Darkest Africa since Foundry first released the figures.

(And I wouldn't encourage those hippos to follow your boat, if I were you. Have you been throwing them buns? Probably not wise, I've heard they can be a bit of a handful when they get boisterous.)

Post by: tjgreenway on 26 February 2017, 01:35:55 PM: Lovely stuff, and another thumbs up for the tomb. I'm just starting out a 1920's Egypt project so would especially love to see more pics in that vein :D

Post by: RichBliss on 26 February 2017, 04:17:23 PM: The Hippos are Foundry and Acheson Creations. Since they spend over 80% of their time in the water, Imdon't actually own any full body ones.

The tomb is part of a giant plastic playset I got on sale after Christmas several years back. Cost me $20. I just sprayed it with a Krylon stone texture paint and I was good to go. I'm take a couple of pictures of the whole set when I get home.
