Title: French Mule drawn Ambulance 1889 model (Colonial & WWI)
Post by: unfeasibly on October 13, 2014, 08:59:31 PM

Making steady progress on a 28mm mule drawn Ambulance, based on the 1889 model, used in North Africa and on the fronts in WWI

(http://www.worldwar1.com/roads/jpg/roads_andreini_4.jpg)

Chassis, sides, roof & wheels are now complete, I'm just finishing of the axel and the springs whilst  Ian is adding the harness to the mules.

The mules can be seen here (http://www.unfeasibly.co.uk). There will also be 4 figures to go with them to make a vignette for the French Foreign Legion in North Africa. Will post an update on these, however have just commissioned a 'Caporal Medic'

Once complete Mike @ BlackHat miniatures will be stocking these.

Kind Regards
Mark
