Mardan or Suakin?

A Suakin Gate Sketch
 
 
Now I've ransacked myself: miniatures by Perry Miniatures, Copplestone, Old Games, Castaway Arts and so on. The base plate of my diorama will form a game board of Games Workshop.

In the summer of last year, I started with wall segments and the main gate. The basic colors are available. My drawing, I apologize, is not really good. but she will give a picture of what I intend to do.

I'm still not really sure if I'll show Suakin in Africa or Mardan in North India.
Both cities have to do with the Corps of Guides, insofar as the Suakin was the base of the guides during the Sudan campaign and Mardan actually the headquarters.

What do you think?

May the Great Builder of all worlds guide your way.

Re-Start with Perry Miniatures

Hi Guys,

as often, the private life is a life with many several and special situations. So in my life the last month ago. I suppose, that much of you have the same Problems.

Now i have start my British army with Perry Twins Minis. Some from Artizan and a Little part of conversions of the minis.

In sommer last year, I start do build an City/Village of India or Sudan (Suakin). So first time I made an Little stop with the buildings and start to great the british Colonials for this. There are two pics about the work.

Even so i start to read some books. One about Rudolf Carl Slatin and the famous novel "the four feathers" from A.W. Mason.

And, last but not least, i have a new section on the blog, on which you can see which game I currently play on the PC.

Have a nice week all over the world!



May the great builder of all worlds guide you.
Cheerio
