| Hi and Happy New Year to all members. I have just finished my first Zulu War painting of a scene from the Battle of Isandlwana entitled "Save the Guns" and just wanted to get members opinions on the picture and if anybody would be interested in purchasing a copy to let me know either via the forum or by email paul.kate64@yahoo.co.uk. I want to just get some idea of how many to get printed before paying out loads of money. Many Thanks Paul [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Excellent colour, and detail.
Just one question. But I could be wrong. The cuffs on the 24th uniforms should they all be green, or were some blue.. The Dummerboy seems to have one of each. |

| Hi Dave thanks for your comments. I of course know they should be green however the green I used seems to have taken on a blue shade when dry. This is a small adjustment I have to make before going to print. |

| I forgot to mention the price of a colour print 16.5 x 11 inches will be £29 each. That includes vat and postage. Many Thanks Paul |

| Well done The 1st Lt Well spotted they are of course the range of Zulu war figures from Britains. I contacted the company and said could I use their figures for a painting and this is the result Glad you like it. I'm hoping Britains will like it too I am sending them a copy in the hope they may use it to advertise their range. |
