So, this is one of the Christmas presents that I am giving this year, to my wife's Uncle, who is well into his Zulu war stuff.

It is supposed to be a section of the northen mealie bag wall at the drift which was subject to the second zulu attack of the encounter.  I've used 6mm sized figures from Baccus6mm.  Details aren't perfect - and the grass is a little on the green side, I think, but overall I'm really quite pleased with the way its come out.

Overall size of the piece is about 4" by 6" (although I've not measured it exactly).

Your comments and feedback are most welcome!

wow, great looking Dio, the only gripe i have is the attack looks to uniform, id add a couple close together, just to break it up a bit, more like a mob than a regimented line attacking.
I'll be in my bunk.

Thanks chaps :D

@Hawkins: I know what you mean, but one of the things that these photos don't show well are the "dead" that are on the ground which really breaks up the charge a lot when you see it "live".

But I'm not re-positioning them now, anyway! ;)
