Hi, All.

I've been mutilating elephants this week, to serve as beasts of war for my GASLIGHT natives...





What do you think?

That's a fantastic idea. Nice one. I really like your use for the trunks too.

 :o

Very creative idea and well executed conversion, topped off with a spiffing paintjob.

Most impressive all round.

Clever use of the trunks, too.
