Hi Guys,

Some of you may know about the latest big Museum project K&C has been working on and recently completed at The BRYAN Museum in Galveston, Texas.
Well, here are a couple of pictures of the completed work...As you can see its fairly large...70 square feet (measuring 7’ x 10’).
K&C designed and produced over 65 all-new figures to help portray the battle where Texas won its independence from Mexico and Santa Anna’s army was routed by the Texan rebels under Gen. Sam Houston.
With the direct advice and assistance of Mr. J.P. Bryan, the founder of the Museum, we illustrated the 18 minute battle in 4 x phases...
First, when the Texans emerge from the woods opposite the Mexican camp and form up.
Then, the general advance on the enemy camp-site and defense line. We also show the flanking attacks by both the Texan infantry and cavalry and the breaking of the Mexican front line.
Finally, there is the break-through and the retreat and rout of Santa Anna’s forces.
We’ll be featuring the whole story and lots of background details and, of course, more photos in the “Yuletide” issue of “COLLECTOR” which we are completing now.
Hope what you like what you see so far!
All the best!
Andy​

That is an impressive display Andy. Next time I'm in Texas I'll have to go by and have a look.
 
Thanks for posting Andy, that's an epic display and it would be awesome to see it in person!

Simply outstanding!!! Any close-up photos would very much be appreciated. Noticed that some figures are submerged within the water column --- is that a first?

I cannot help wondering how much for the beautiful display case?

What an amazing creation of a complete battle in miniature. I very much look forward to closer pictures as the detail will be incredible. -- Al
 
Another remarkable feat in the world of miniatures. Very impressive Andy. Robin.
 
Very nice! I'd love to see K&C tackle a project on this scale for a Napoleonic battle.
Cheers,

I would like to see AWI or ACW also but I like this a lot too.

this diorama is perfect for the locale...

this battle was actually in Texas and only 45 minutes from the museum...

If it were up to Sam Houston, I think that he'd have the entire exhibit relocated to Austin.:wink2:
