Gents,
I'm going to put together a vignette of some British 2nd Afghan War officers taking tea in an encampment. The officers, I have – Foundry, Empress et al.
What I need is a mess steward, ideally Sikh carrying a tray! And would someone make 28mm tea service that I might put out on a table?

For the tea service, try dolls house suppliers – you may find something small enough, perhaps a 'childs tea service' or something?

Here's a tea set: link

For a mess steward, I might use one of Bob Murch's staff minis ( link ) or ( pulpfigures.com/products/view/81 ) and either do a headswap or add a turban and beard.

How about the Foundry gun bearer from the tiger hunting elephant set?

Thanks for your help guys. The tea service will definitely work Jeff, though that Bob Murch guy looks a bit like Lurch!
I'm thinking the guy with outstretched hand from IND215 might make the best steward if I fit a tray to that hand…

Someone's been drinking too much Camp coffee?
