British in Zululand, NWF, South Africa, Sudan & Newline announcement

Hello all

Just thought I'd keep the interest boiling with the imminent arrival (hopefully in a few months and b4 the snow falls) of the new Zulu War/colonial figures from HaT and now also Newline in May; more on those lads later...

Here are a few images from my collection to assist in some uniform planning...

Enjoy



















Keeping the interest going for the 17th too





Newline have also (thanks to Steve the wargamer) announced the launch of some new figures to their 20mm colonial range too...

Looks like HaT could learn from Newline...get your products out to the market first...once I have spent my few £/$/€ I can't go back and spend them again...first in the market is first with the profits...

Anyway, I've also added a few more links to the right...showing some of great painting and conversions around.

Back to the grind!
