Hi, Just been experimenting with adding backgrounds to the pictures, let me know what you think.

(i think the first ones a bit dodgy???)

Any chance you can make the pics bigger? They look really good, but are too small.

cheers

It sure has Joe an once again what a pleasure to see you at play. Great backdrop photos would love having them as backgrounds to play with. It's nice to see you've gotten to use photobucket an got it master. I noticed you've added WB's Mr. Dalton to your collection. He does blend in very nicely with the Conte figures. Looking forward to seeing your next batch of photos an thanks again for sharing your playtime with us...........The1stLt

Well done to both of you, its a great idea of posting photo's of the two Battles. Please keep up the good work.. If there is such thing as expert modellers, it would be you two.

"modellers" I may have invented a new word there....

The Battle Continues...

As the light fades, the fire from Oscarberg is becoming heavier, Pvt Hitch is shot in the shoulder closely followed by Cpl Allen in the leg, bringing them both down and leaving the wall undefended...

The shots carry on into the night, so the defeners hide behind the barricades inbetween shots.

The Zulus charge relentlessly in the darkness, only visible in the red light of the burning Hospital.

Bromhead fires upon the Zulus which are constantly flooding over the wall.

Bravo Joe

For me and after JW ,the only good model for R D buildings is that of Redoubt enterprise !

By cons it took I make the stairs and ladder ... JW helped me a lot, so the result is impeccable ...

After JW, I am set for the color of the buildings in 1879, he'll have to repaint all...

Cheers
