Sir Henry is indeed correct the small launch is from HLBSC and the larger wooden vessel is from Frontline. Nice models :)

Ain't gonna happen. The film put me off the whole concept for life.

From now on I shall get my Quatermain fix direct from Rider Haggard.

Fair enough, but the graphic novels are far far superior to the film. The film was dreadful and bears little or no resemblance to the comics at all. I have read Rider Haggard too, but if you want VSF its the way to go.

Like the good people have said the graphic novels are far superior to the film. You won't regret reading them. Why don't you get them from the library if your still not sure. :wink:
