British 7pdr guns and crew along with a Hales rocket by Empress Miniatures.
Last week Dave D did a fantastic job on a 9pdr version of this gun along with a wonderful backdrop. Check out http://www.onemanhisbrushes.blogspot.co.uk/
Also if you go to the excellent http://28mmvictorianwarfare.blogspot.co.uk/ you will to see a superb example of a 7pdr gun and crew painted by the talented Michael Awdry.
There is plenty more posts on the Zulu front to come as I have now finished mounted and dismounted Buffalo Border Guard, Newcastle Mounted Rifles, Imperial Mounted Infantry and various mounted officers. These posts will be joining the blog queue along with French Napoleonics, more terrain and some medieval buildings that have all been completed. So hopefully there should be enough to keep you coming back for a little while.

Pat, excellent painting on the gunners! The shading and highlighting on the uniforms is superb!
ReplyDeleteSome excellent photos and great looking figures.
ReplyDeleteSuperb Pat! Great work and really impressive photography that really brings the enormity of the scenario to life. I'm sure I've got the rocket team somewhere, really must dig it out and I notice that you've got all the elements based as individual items, are you planning to convert a few limbers for the guns?
ReplyDeleteMany thanks also for the link, although it doesn't seem to be working at the moment. :(
Thanks very much everyone.
DeleteMichael, I have re done your link, so should be okay now.
The limbers did cross my mind. I have a set of British Napoleonic unmade, I don't know if these would work. Anyone have any suggestions?
Great painting and great photos. I especially like the photos with approaching Zulu hordes in the background!
ReplyDeleteVery nice- I do like the look of those guns!
ReplyDeleteReally splendid, Pat. I can almost hear the crump of the guns and sizzle of the rockets! Fantastic stuff
ReplyDeleteFantastic photos. Beautiful looking figures, really like the paintjob on these guys. Like the sound of what is to come in the blog queue too.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Chaps.
