'East' from StephenS: Arab Baggage Train

I present my offering from the (Middle) East!

Here is a 28 mm baggage train from Gripping Beast which will form an objective or some lovely thematic scenery for our 'Saga: Crescent and Cross' games. It has camels and their pets as well as goats, what more could you want?




The models were great fun to paint up, and were the first camels and goats I've painted, in either miniature form or real-life... I was pretty happy with how they turned out.



There are 4 handlers, 4 goats and two camels all up. I'm not sure how to score the livestock, I'd say 10/10, but I might be a bit biased... So I'll leave that to wiser heads!

Cheers,

Steve

  3. Very nice work with all those robes and materials Steve - and good to see you've filled the 'camel gap' left (deliberately?) by Dave in this round too!

  4. Really nice.
    (I am always perplexed at the smooth skin that hairy camels are sculpted with.)
    Great baggage train though. Looks good. Cheers
