Good job on them.
I hate Jazz (see JC & Dice Master as they love it)
However, some suggestions:-
Big Vine Swing,  We Play Zulus,  Jungle Rhythm, Syncopated Six,
Jungle Drums, The Big Tree Sound, We got Wry-Them, 6-2-a Bar,
Wood Wind, Tribal Tempo, Up (the Jungle) Beat, Beat it Up, Dig-It.

I think Big Vine Swing is the sound......but I like “Tribal Tempo”.......unless someone can better that.....


Another (no 7) nears completion, along with three pieces of ground cover.  This tree is a lot darker green.



And I’m starting to add bits of detail in.....spot the mamba.

They are certainly different!

Cheers Nic, your figures are nice and clean making conversion easy.  I may yet do the same with the club dancer set!

Putting paint on now....

I knew you’d find something eventually so that you can use all those pirate’s you have.
Instead of pirates of the Caribbean, it’s pirates on the Ubangi.🏴‍☠️

Nope...I have the bloody pirate ships for that....saying that, pirates and jungles....another use for it!

Nope, I feel a small band of rugged looking sailors helping get the expedition as far up river as possible on the cards.  Lots of inspirational looking steamers about, on these boards too.   I see cages on board for trophy captures etc.

Bloody Beezlebub!  The photos are messed up again.  How's a man to engage in proper idea stealing without the visual necessary.  Heck, I guess I'll just trundle off to that other necessary!   lol
