Tuareg Warriors. Tuareg territory was organised into confederations, each ruled by a supreme Chief, along with a council of elders from each tribe. These confederations were sometimes called "Drum Groups" after the Amenokal's symbol of authority, a drum.

Lovely - and timely for me.  My FFL project already has most of the Berber foot painted since they came that way.  But an equal sized contingent of Touareg foot to paint (technically, more Berbers I guess).  And loads of cavalry and camelry to paint.

The oil wells reminded me of an exchange in Blood Diamonds where an African man tells the Solomon character he is glad his country didn't have any discovered oil deposits in it for fear of the damage to come if it did.

The Chasseurs d'Afrique are nicely done, again, mine came mostly painted.  Only French mounted units still to paint are the dismounts and 'empty' mules for my mounted company and my Spahis and Goums.  My setting is mostly 1880s era and Goums came along later but I like the diversity of appearance they add.  And I have an armored car and truck that came with the painted stuff - but they were not finished.

I shall be taking inspiration from your work as I drive on getting ready for an October convention FFL game.

Ragland,

Of course, you know the Arab allies are perfect to use for the Senussi campaign. Looks like you have a jump on that one already. ;-)

Regards,
Bob

Thanks mate, the tents are 3D printed
Everything is splendid..you also did a good research on real costumes of the warriors.
Also, realistic (basic) desert tents are really difficult to find and also quite hard to scratchbuild...OK is a 3 D tent...may you sell me one or two if you are the file owner or, alternativly, point out which manufacture sell the printed model?
tks
