Camel Corp

[steeleagle]

Finished this Camel Corp vignette by Oniria Miniatures back in February. It's a 30mm feature of the Gordon relief column to Khartom in the Sudan 1883. Painted mainly with AK and Vallejo acrylics. Had a blast building the date palm tree. Oniria Miniatures are 28mm figures but they are anatomically proportioned correctly so they are actually 30mm tall rather than the squatty 28mm figs you usually see. Stone work is Aves Clayshay. Fun to paint.

Thanks Mobo!
I got the set from Marco55 about a year and a half ago. When I did the research on the uniforms I was hooked. I've always wanted to try a palm tree as well so everything fit into place a I had some real fun with this. Oniria makes a variety of great western vignettes too so one of those may be on the shopping list before too long.
Thanks,
Gary

Warren , Thanks much.

Mark, Thanks! I really had fun with this one. Starting to work on the French Colonial figs I got from you.

Great subject. Quite an unusual scale, too. I don't know how you paint that small though! Well done indeed.
