Like it Duke. This is Mexican standoff, both are well armed. Robin.

Thanks Robin. Aren't Water Buffalos supposed to be docile creatures? Those horns do look menacing though. {eek3}

You would have to be very happy Duke with this scene you have created. You have an excellent eye for detail. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Just caught up with this thread Duke, excellent photos and scene as is usual :salute::

About Water Buffalo's, of the little I've read in biograhies of US troops encountering them up close, they didn't seem to friendly, and quite often came of worse for the encounter and the troops being fined to pay recompense to the Vietnamese Farmers.
But then just your usual cows encountered out in a field can turn out to be quiet offended by human presence !
Though I remember a couple of years ago when work to me to a small Dairy Farm and stroking some inquisitive cows over the fence who were all very friendly licking my hand. After the Salt I guess !

Thanks everyone for the comments. I've been on vacation the last several days so just catching up.

Mark, I used two grass mats in this scene. The one in the foreground is from JG Miniatures and the one joined to it and in the back is from BAR.
