I've forgotten what the sun looks like as it's been so cloudy for ages here in Bristol.

No I wouldn't, my silly hat has been soaked through for weeks. Destroyed a smart phone two weeks ago, work one used to transmit car data to office, it flooded on the yard at Widnes.

Will take some pics once sun moves round enough ;)

These are the final figures for this project...

A couple of wagons for various supply related scenarios









A band of Catawabas under the inspiringly, and historically, named General New River





A band of Cherokee under the less inspiring, but historically, named Dragging Canoe





There is still a bit more terrain to do for this project so I will update this thread after I finish some 1914 German reinforcements

Very good, Paul. I particularly like the added ropes to the sides of the tarpaulin covered wagons. Also, is the driver a converted figure? How did you do that one?
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Thanks all :)

If the cloud clears up as forecast by this afternoon I will take some close ups
Will be interesting to see how the paint job stands up to the camera's harsh scrutiny :-SS

The driver comes with the wagon, what surprised me was that the figure sits so well on the wagon cover.
It just needed the wagon sitting at about 45 degrees while the glue dried ;)
