  That's the absolute dogs' bollox, put me down for one   

I'm not surprised by the scotch accent, bloody Celts get everywhere 

Even Kate's Arab horse was part Irish 

[Furt]

Lovely. That's a really good sculpt of Raisuli's big "F-off" sword.

[FramFramson]

Very nicely done! And a good likeness too!

[gringo]

Chris.you know us micks!! ...............i had a few sculpts made this

was by far the best.............my Spanish -American war yanks rough riders

will do for the yanks..................Palace Guard next..maybe,,or more

Berbers.

Furt ..i was really pleased with the rendidtion of the sword as well

Fram....likeness is good and was important on the sculpt brief i gave out

now to get him cast.....

my Spanish -American war yanks rough riders

will do for the yanks

You need a Yank Sergent with a pump action shotgun if you are going to do it justice and some Germans in Pickelhaubes, one officer in particular wearing a monicle wielding a Mauser and sabre.

[gringo]

coulnt agree more Nick..the pump action shotgun gun was on the list

im making this morning...as are some of the other characters...the old boy

who plugs a few of the Berbers at the beginning!!. loads of great

characters..........the Company of Marines potrayed win the fim were

Spanish Special forces no wonder they moved so crisply and looked the

part!!   regards Ged www.gringo40s.com

Was that 1975? Never realised that film was so old.
I loved the soundtrack of that film - and Roosevelt too.
Brilliant model.

I like this!

Early 20th century Morocco is one of my (too many) projects. Interesting context with so many foreign countries trying to set a foot in there. Could give ideas of diplomatic scenarios, and/or Pulp mixed with international diplomacy. A sort of French-flavoured (or Spanish-flavoured in the north) chaos in Cairo.

lovely

Don't you also need a couple of Austrian husars for that final fight ?

(even more Austrians needed Ged !)
