10mm Colonial army for Sudan wars

They don't like it up 'em! (the cold steel, that is). Here is a nice force for the war in the Sudan. The metal is from Pendraken miniatures.

I am reminded of a Dad's Army" episode "Two and a half feathers" with a scene in the Sudan

10mm Colonial force for the Sudan

Pendraken's 10mm Paddle Steamer for the Sudan

These are a couple of Pendraken's paddle steamers, from their Sudan range. I actually have a third model, not assembled, around here somewhere. The models don't come with those railings. I had to drill into the deck, plant short wire there with aradlite, and then thread between these posts. I don't know if this was intended. It was a huge pain in the bottom to undertake. I managed to lose one of the chinese hat awnings, so I had to scratch build one from wood.

I would like to have taken better photos, but I haven't appropriate river scenery. I tried cutting the boats out of that background, and revealing some blue, or brown water, background, but it looked terrible.
