Now that is a splendid little army! And it has the distinction of being very complete. Great brushwork

Very nice little army, well done I especially like your gun bases.
What brand is the smaller gun, resembles what would call a Ordnance RML 2.5-inch mountain gun?

Prince Rupert of the Rhine05 Jul 2023 4:15 a.m. PST

CaptainDarling. It's from the the Wargames Foundry Darkest Africa range where they sell it an Askari Mountain gun.
