Ansar Army...wats zat in the dust sir....?

My Ansar army came together the other day to launch itself upon the imperial devils...

They are still waiting for the bulk of their camel troops - but we asured they are on their way across the heat and the dust of the desert dunes...



Some of my Ansar artillery conversions...





My Camel conversions...consisting of Italeri's superb camels, bodies from Waterloo and Caesar









More later next week
Enjoy the weekend

    I like it Duncan, they look good, makes my lot look puny. It must have taken ages to paint that many Ansar and the flags in amongst them really set it all off.

    I must say that is a fantastic collection. I love the little diorama touches to the bases. More please!

    Hi Al

    Thanks for posting your question. I have made up my own rules - but since my forces have grown I have been on the look out for some good rules...if you can advice some I would be most grateful.

    Regards

    Duncan

    I found this page looking for Sudan resources prior to starting my own forces in 10mm.

    You have a wonderful army.

    Truly terrific stuff!

    If I may ask:

    1. How do you prep your plastic figs?
    2. Do you seal them?
    3. With what do you paint?

    Desperately afraid of the paint-and-flake problem!

    Regards,

    Hi Jim - first sorry for the delay in response...

    I first wash the figs in washing-up liquid, then base coat with a cheap acrylic white paint...

    I do have an issue with flaking...esp with figs that are over 10 years old.

    Painting is with Acrylic's and now with a lap & glass...eyes are not as young as they were...
