Bashi-Bazouks
« on: April 14, 2013, 05:24:51 PM »
Filled with enthusiasm for my Sudan project, I've just finished these Perry Bashi-Bazouks. I don't normally post here, but as they're colourful, different and fun, I though you might enjoy them too  :)

More photos, description and my first, mangled attempt at painting them can be found on my blog:

Thanks for sharing, I like what you've done!

Splendid! Well done.

Yes, they are quite useful!

Until the time someone will produce suitable GWI fugures they are a good alternative!

Excellent work!  :-* A nice, colorful unit for the table.
