Blimey! You've just reminded me that i have 11 Beja painted up thus far and at least as many 28mm mini's to paint up just for the Mahdists!!  :o :o

I've been snowed under with painting for Salute so my Sudan (and NWF and now Indian Mutiny!!) will be continued post Salute!

Keep us all updated with how this army grows as it will serve as inspiration and impetus for me to get stuck into the Mahdists!!

Excellent work! :) Your new camera shows the minis to advantage. :)

This is inspiring, I'm doing my Sudan/Colonials in 28mm, and it's great to see how much life and detail you are getting into these 15mm. :)

i touch the end !!!!!

my mounted beja in preparation !!!

all are a 15 mm lancashires figurines ( some horse came from essex miniatures)








for the only beja paint ==> it's a try and the  camel is not finish!!!

after that, 2 gun krupps and crew, based the miniatures and i will try to paint 500 ansars from old glory, two dragons, minifigs,essex and peter pig.

normally if i counted my mahdist army i will have 1000 irregulars men on the table. i hope.
