British Camel Corps - Sudan - 1884, Oniria Miniatures 36mm metal.

2019 was a rough year with health issues for my wife and I along with other "painting distractions" . Because of this, I haven't painted anything since last April, but I am happy to say our health has improved greatly and I can finally return to my favorite pastime. Hurrah!

For my first 2020 effort I tackled Oniria's British Camel Corps vignette. The figures measure approximately 36mm to the top of the bare head. A great size for multiple figure vignettes, and well sculpted by Angel from Oniria.

All painting was done as usual with acrylics using a wet palette (and an Optivisor )

Nuff said. Thanks for looking.

Ken

What a beautiful piece! Nice job! If i'm not mistaken from another forum Ken, I think you're from the Chicago area, or am I thinking of someone else?
If so, me too. I'm in the western 'burbs.

Hi Ken,
Good to see you back modelling and the health has improved.

That's a stellar job my friend, when I first looked at the photo's I thought these were 54mm.
cheers

Hi Ken

Great to hear everything has improved and also to see you at the bench and whst a lovely vignette , hard to believe the scale of the figures as there's so much detail

Like the artwork and the groundwork presentation

Happy benchtime

They look very nice indeed Ken, & as stated above could easily pass for 54mm. Great groundwork too!
