More Zulu Books

Picked up another 2 Zulu related books ,The Battle of Ulundi and King Cetshawayo Kampande both by John Laband and part of the Kwazulu Monuments Council series , I already have one ,seen with these 2 in the picture and I am not sure how many there were in the series I know there is at least one more on Isandlawana . They are nice soft cover books packed with B&w Photos ,drawings and maps ,as you would expect from Laband they are very informative nd well written

Pulp Alley project pt 3

Finished the final set of Pulp Alley characters ,this set are the Phantom Agents led by the mysterious Phantom Ace fighting for justice with his trusty side kicks Gauge the tomboy mechanical expert always inventing new gadgets to save the day , Rutherford the Askari marksman and finally Roswell The fierce pooch who is always handy in a brawl . These and the previous two leagues will be taking part in a three palyer campaign during the summer .

Pulp Alley Project -pt2

Finished the second pulp alley set of figures ,this time we have the Dundee Scholars , the Leader Lucky Dundee ,and his two sidekicks Lady Elaine who is the brains of the outfit and the other sidekick Milligan the acrobatic chimp . Again all cards come with the figures saving me alot of time making my own. As you can see ,Luckylooks abit like a certain heroic archeologist

The Defence of Rorkes Drift

A couple of new items for my Anglo Zulu War collection ,2 wooden Plagues celebrating the Defence of Rorkes Drift .I believe these were originally produced for the Museum in Brecon but went out of production quite a while ago but thanks to Ian Knight managed to get a contact for the original manufacturer and got these made up for me. The Rifle and Shield one measures around 25cm x20cm and the Victoria cross one is about 17x12cm .

Pulp Alley -new project

I have quite few figures I have been using with Pulp Alley but recently purchased afew of their own figures ,they come with pre generated cards ,the first set ive painted are Minervas Mercenaries a set of five figures ,Minerva ,her side kick Ramjeet Singh and 3 thugs to give them support.The figures are nice but had alot of flash ,something Im not used to now days and the metal is very hard so they take some cleaning up but worth the work .

Our intrepid Heroine and her faithul side kick

These three likely lads will give the back up needed to face all those challenges and perils Next up the Dundee Scholers

Zona Alfa -all done

Finished all the important stuff for Zona Alfa ,well at least enough to play the game .I finished all the bits I bought from Patrick Miniatures ,with the last one being the ruined shop ,a superb model that comes with achoice of signs ,in the photo I have used the shoe store sign but it also comes withbakery and grocery store as well,the removable roof shows some shop items from a Mantic terrain crate . The other bits are also from the Terrain Crates except the swarms of rats which are from the Whizz Kids D&D range .I need to dirty up the die casts I bought for this game to appear abandoned and I will buy a few more figures and possibly another shop from Patrick , but for now all finished , now onto the next project?

Zona Alfa project .another update

The items below are more military scavenger types with a variety of weapons .The toxic pools and other bits are mainly from Mantic ,the anomolies are scratched built by myself
