Wow, very neat. I've never seen a full gun and transport on the table before.

I am hoping to have a limited number of elephants, guns and mahouts available to interested individuals by sometime in November. The limbers are Iron Duke Miniatures set no.IMLA2 (with a custom set of beams to connect to the elephants)and are available (except the beams)through Empress Miniatures. Chains are optional and I haven't really figured out the best way to connect them.

Beautiful job, Bob -- it's great to see a long-term plan come together!!!

That's a thing of beauty!

I'd be game to buy a set, but I do my colonials in 15mm… Guess the Guru will have to buy a set for me.

Bob, Those look amazing!!!! Can't wait to put some limbers and elephants together myself. Awesome looking project!
Cheers,

Truly a work of art: well done.

Do you think the guns will become commercially available? Are those Wargames Foundry crew serving the gun?

Alan – They are Perry's British Intervention force artillerymen and I replaced the hats with helmets from Empress Miniatures. I have a couple of extra guns if you are interested as well as elephants and mahouts.
