As the calendar steadily marches towards Christmas I am delighted to that a sizeable part 1 of my Sudan project is now complete - The Mahdist forces - including camelry , horse and command
The previous post to this project can be found
here
The Horse below are a mix of Gripping Beast light Arabs and Perry Horse from their Sudan range
I am quite please how they have come out - there are currently 35 painted (just need one more to make three full units)
These two (below) are gripping beast with dervish heads and weapons added
As of today I have 12 Camel riders (all Perry) - if funds permit or I can strike it lucky on ebay I'll be adding to this force
All the command stands are Perry figures mounted on 60mm discs
The Mahdi of course gets a bigger base
So there we have it the Mahdi's force can march forward into the Sudan
Up next - the British Colonial forces assemble
part 8 can be found here

Beautiful: Most impressive was the concept that a Native army was ever 'finished.' Then I saw that you wanted more camels, and was reassured that the army wasn't done with you.
