I recently received two of their resin unarmored African elephants. The sculpting is excellent and the detail is very sharp. I particularly like the one with the raised foot – he looks a bit annoyed. The elephants are integral with the base and howdah. They are light weight. Required assembly is only to attach the trunk and tusks. The crew figures come separately. There are several groups to pick from, 3 or 4 figures, different weapons. The crew are well sculpted and animated. Also includes shields to fix on the howdah. These are excellent models.

Thanks for that, I've ordered some so your posting is quite timely. I'm looking forward to painting them! The biggest animals I've ever done before are horses, so I'm hoping these will be a real catcher and add a bit of character to my collection

Thanks again cheers Russ

Click on the Elephants box on the left hand side then RETURN and a page of elephants comes up on my screen and there are further pages of them by clicking the numbers at the bottom.

I've just bought some as Indian allies of my Scythian army. So I know they are there.

Look also at the Indian section where there are more photos of elephant /crew combinations. Some Nellies come without crew (to be bought separately) but in this section you can find the same elephants with crew cheaper.

The African elephant looks a little over armoured doesn't it?
