Simply astonishing. That is one of the best looking games, in any scale, I've seen in a long time. One of the things that has always bothered me about 1/72 is the lack of head styles for the Dervishes (bald chaps especially), but it seems there are some out there.

Very well done, Sir!

Thank you for the kind words I have been working on better terrain for my games and my Sudan collection has taken me 15 years to finish all except my model of the Bordein and Khartoum are left to be done. I also have Isandlwana on the blog from 2016 convention ill post a sample but it is an earlier work but it does get alot of views here's a sample.

Nice blog. I love your Korean War AAR, first time I ever saw any North Korean minis, it's a pretty rarely played war.

Thank You! the North Koreans are made by Eureka and I mixed in south viet minh from their Indochina line Ill post my Chinese horde soon on the blog and some of the marines and vehicles and a battle report in the near future.

Really enjoyed looking through your blog, and then seeing all your terrain pieces!

You've tackled quite a variety with your projects – I know you must really love seeing, and/or experiencing a beautiful battlefield layout.
