The first of my Sudan war troops

[Maenoferren]

That's a horde and a half!! 

I'm glad to see that you have 2 stands of British ready to face them all (back 2 photos on PB)

Royal Marines... The Fuzzies don't stand a chance

Very nice indeed 

[Hertsblue]

Don't say that - I've been wanting a few Bactrian baggels for my Indian and Chinese armies for years.

Would you really get a camel into a round bun with a hole in the middle?

[Maenoferren]

Evidently you can get a camel through the eye of a needle...so I dont see why not

[Maenoferren]

Well that's the Hadendowah nearly finished, Just the spears and the camel tack to do then onto either the navy or the highlanders.

That's an awful lot of troops. Looking very impressive.

Cheers, that's about half of them.... this is why I am doing Dervish, then something else then back to the Dervish ... If I did them all in one go I think I would have gone potty
hopefully the Hadendowah will be finished tonight

well when I say finished, they need the base edges painting and the whole lot varnishing then bits of foliage adding.

I tend to varnish after adding foliage, seems to help hold the foliage together and give a more uniform level of matt-ness

Yep, me too 

[Leman]

I don't because I hand paint varnish after too many frostings with the spray.

Nicely painted

On the final push with the British...23 bases plus commands to do. oh and then onto the gazillion Dervish bases
