Splendid stuff sir! What a superb find and your conversion work is spot on!
Now listen to me you benighted muckers. We're going to teach you soldiering. The world's noblest profession. When we're done with you, you'll be able to slaughter your enemies like civilized men.

They'll fill up a wagon train nicely. They look especially good with the canvas on.

Nicely done, Giles.
They do tart up well, dont they?

And at that price, who's complaining?

If you are looking for cheap draught option like I did, I went for plastic ERTL cows.
Even with postage from the States they were seriously affordable.

Lovely job :-* :-* :-*
Now all you need are some Indians to race round the wagons and you are halfway through another project :D

Hi Folks

Delighted to report that the Zulu Wars project is now complete...and what better way to finish with Rorkes Drift (thanks Hu Rhu for the great deal on the buildings)_

Of course we haven't fought the battle yet - that is being saved for the anniversary on the 23rd Jan next year...so if any of my fellow Blammers are interested in a Sunday game at the Berrylands pub let me know

Lots of pictures on the blog

thanks for all your support in this project
