Statues, monuments etc in BoB?

Hi. The Kali thread in Colonials has got me thinking.

I have some small wooden incense stick holders which were brought back from Thailand as a gift which would be perfect for 28mm; Buddha, an Elephant and a [Thai] God.

I think Buddha may make the cut ..

I use Aquarium decorations...the resin ones. You get them ready painted for the fraction of the cost of wargames buildings. They sometimes need a little touch up like the Chinese temple i have complete with tree, but the large ruined Buddha i have needed no work whatsoever and only cost me £12 from Pets at Home

Well, you cannot have too many Buddhas, it seems...

Caves of the Thousand Buddhas

I have toyed with the idea to make some kind of representation of this for my Central Asia board. I have even degraded my self by visiting various New Age stores to acquire a number of statues for a modest collection of little heavy set men in bronze and terracotta.

You can pick up those little statues of the Terracotta warriors...would make a good frontage to a tomb...a bit pulpy (i like that though) but neat.

A Chinese Temple you say? Any piccies?

I have a ruined Acquarium building which i intend to use at some point. Its a bit well, green, after actually being in my brother's fish tank ...

Other possibles to those mentioned:= Those little pot stands, as sold at garden centres , which keep plant pots off the floor & away from frost etc. I have obtained 'dragons & large frogs, both useful as statues/gate guards etc.; cast your own 'chess set' sets, especially the oriental one (has the advantage that you can use the misscasts as broken statues); Incomplete chess sets from jumble sales/car booters etc.
