Beautifully done, especially the Hussars. I have a question though.  ??? Is that a Perry Krupps? I have painted mine with brown leather (?) seats for the accompanying gunners whilst yours look to be metal? Are we both in our own ways correct I wonder? I'll have to try and get a picture up (on a new thread, I'm not wishing to hijack your wonderful gallery).

You may be quite right - I couldn't find a good image of what colour the seats should be, so pretty much stuck with the same as the rest of the carriage. Did you find a picture.

I love the sabot bases. I am using the same for my Zulu Wars. Your bases are superb.

Really great stuff  :-*.

Do you know if Warbases or anyone else for that matter does the sabbot bases with the 'holes' for the round mini bases closer together?

I really like the idea of sabbot bases but have so far been put off by the spaces between the miniatures being just a touch too far apart for my liking- that's not to detract from your great work Phyllion!

The warbases ones re about as tight as they could be I think. But there are a couple of options I suppose. O. The easy side, smaller bases - 20mm round should pack the minis tighter.

Alternatively, you could make your own which is the approach I'll be taking with my Mahdists. I've got some Perspex rings from jimbibbly that are just a few millimetres wide. I'll be able to do some 'horde' formations and pack them a bit tighter and more randomly.

Great looking miniatures and basing! Could you share which paints/ methods you have used for the bases? As they look splendid.

Cheers

That sounds like the answer to me- Thanks for the answer, I look forward to seeing the Mahdists.
