 :o lovely terrain and beautifully painted figs. Particularly like the Mashrabeya (wooden window shrouds).
They were all drawn to the Keep; the soldiers who brought death; the father and daughter fighting for life; the people who have always feared it; and the one man who knows its secret....

Frank, I love 'em!

I have lots of Sudanese and Zanzibaris and they would be perfect for both. They would also work for Fantasy, or even certain SciFi games set in the desert. Conan would love thieving and fighting in this sort of town  ;)

How can I resist  ;D

Just seen this on the site:



I know it's intended as 1/72, but it definitely has potential for 28mm Colonial/Victorian era games too.

Carts are always useful  :D

A glimpse on his side shows me that the wagon is now available in 28 mm. Also another cart - called a british supply wagon - is shown there.

Awesome!!!  :-* :-* :-* I'm in (price permitting).  How do I buy???

P.S. Those background palm trees are amazing as well.  Any ideas what they are?

Very, very nice models, and wonderfully atmospheric.  :-*

I saw a picture of  an old building in Kenya today, that had those exact decorative, arched doors.



So, I find a [icture of a perferct stone and adobe Colonial building for a port tile for my Sudan project.    I get the picture, and it looks very African, and I find out that it was a building in Antwerp.   :?

The palm trees in the background are from PREISER, a German company:

Great presentation, and some of them look as if they can be used for India around the mutiny as well.  8)
