About the Project
I have decided to revisit all my colonial miniatures and give them a bit of love after being stored away in the Garage for so long. I have four armies that need a tidy up and revisit some 19th century theaters of war and why the hell were we there? "Because we're here lad,no body else, just us"

Last unit of redcoats
First time using Vallejo paints so I've taken my time in these Highlanders. I like the look of these guys. So far I've done the redcoats and helmets
Completing my Zulu war collection
This final delivery from empress miniatures should complete my Zulu war collection for good. Maybe.
I have those final units I was missing. Some dragoons. Highlanders and Boers
Battlefield complete
So I have nearly finished my Board for Nyezane. 12 foot by 8. Yes I need to blend some of the boards together a bit more but in happy with it. The gardens the only place big enough to lay it all out. I can break it down into five smaller tables.
Irregular Cavalry
Large pile of lead from Perry miniatures. I'm working on a number of small units if irregular cavalry from the Zulu war
Bakers Horse
Kaffrarian VanguardHorse holders
Mounted infantry and Natal Hussars dismounted to face the enemy but someone has to stand back and look after the horses
Moo
Horse holders. Cattle and mules
I had a look at local cattle to get the colours right. The scenario I'm working towards has a number of wagons that have to cross the board so I needed something to pull them
