Mummies...

 For possible Egyptian tomb or similar games, a couple of mummies....

French Foreign Legion

Finished rebasing the Foreign Legion figures I bought painted and also have painted the others I had purchased.

Desert table changes...

I wanted some summer blue sky backdrop boards with minimal clouds to reprsent being a bit deeper in teh desert. I bought a set of summer sky ones made by Art Printers ID Backscenes. These I  fixed with spray mount adhesive onto white faced hardboard.

the basic setup with the sandy'ish coloured felt I use for the table surface....

I only had enough dune sections on cardboard for one end of the table and made up some more to get be down most of the back of the table.  Here is a setup using my felt covered lumps and bumps with the card backed dunes and other bits placed against the back scene boards.

Camel caravan on the move...

and of course my French Foreign Legion fort ....

New arrivals - French Foreign Legion and their opposition...

 New arrivals, a 'little' project for desert games .. Redoubt Enterprises Foreign Legion and Arabs (tuaregs)..

Spotted some nice painted of 40+ foreign legion tfigures o get me started and another job lot with about 15 figures. Broken figures discarded to the melty pot and some repaired using bits of other bad pose figures. Leaving me with enough for most games I can think of...

Tuaregs.. a couple of lots of Ebay spotted at the same time... metal cast spears replaced with wire ones and a few minor conversions on some figures done ...

Some more off another Ebay lot,  nine mounted on camels

and four on horses, these all had broken off gun barrels and have been remodelled to some extent and given other weapons... 

I've got out the desert setup I use for the game table and will be making some improvements....
