Africa - A savage king and a cannon (upd. 13.12.15 - p.17)

The first scene is re-creation of one of my older LPL entries, I guess even the first season of the LPL. The miniature of the king is from Reaper Miniatures and made by Bob Olley, astonishing piece of amazing sculpting work. As far as I know I never posted the pictures of him outside of that one LPL round. So today, many years later, here we go again, with the Savage King, his retinue and some bold adventurers meeting him.







Next one is a piece never properly presented as far as  I know, the Askari cannon. Painted on a business travel, in  a far away country, where I had to work for a while and my only compensation for that were the random painting hours. Very characterful miniatures!

Simply spectacular, just hope the quality of rules can equal the pics of your stuff. I know I'm a minority but I can't take to Musket and Tomahawks at all.

Mind, I've played Saga once and quite liked it- I got slaughtered!  :D

Wonderful painting, Pro.
I remember seeing the savage king years ago.
Still a great set piece. Love to see it again.
Excellent cannon and crew.
Thanks for sharing.
