Britain's Zulu War (2 Viewers)

Joeseppi,

Is that snow picture today? :eek:

If Joey goes into the forrest to do his business, bring your camera, maybe you can take me some winter forrest scenic pictures for my JJ's to send me.

It's sunny here today. :eek:

Got a little playtime in while the snow is making every effort to overcome my land of the zulus......The Lt.

That is a great photo LT, and I think perhaps a Trophy colour bearer placed behind, filling in until we get one in Matte. A lovely shot and has been selected as my desktop pic of the week.

It was snowing here today on my way to work but only a light dusting, spring is around the corner hang in there and I hope no more snow is sent your way.
 
Your so right about the flag Scott and glad you like the photo I got help from the attached photo which gave me the idea. Now we also got to get WBritain to provide us with an Officer wearing the red tunic as pictured below firing his pistol. Had to sub the 24th dealing and loading only have one at this time kneeling and firing....The Lt.

That is a great photo to draw inspiration from LT. I think I may use that and see what I can come up with. An officer in red would also be a great addition to the WB line up.
 
Found some more old film from 1879 LT.

Scott,
Charles Fripp had a camera? And he was Idandlwana? Wow. That guy really got around... What a picture! Randy, if you're out there, Joe has done a rep of a small square here. A small tactical square to be sure, but potent (with enough ammunition) Beautiful!

Nice photo Lt! I have had not much time lately to take any pics but dont loose hope I will have some soon. :)
 
Had a hunch you'd come up with somthing Scott that would add a touch of class to the photo and guess 1879 was right about Fripp and his camera. Jag looking forward the photos when the time allows you to take and share them.

Now returning to the Mission Stations the pesky Zulus are keeping the Brit's from taking a break....The Lt.

Strangely enough, I DO NOT have the Natal Mounted Police (even though they're one of my favorite colonial units) You certainly are doing them justice, along with the Officer in Patrol Tunic. And Britains matte goes extremely well with My Lord's own KwaJimu 's building at the Drift.
Your most Humble and Obedient servant,
Mike
 
I've got a got hunch 1879 will find that the NMP from LL to your collection some time down the road. In the mean time KwaJimu's building is continuing to be defended....The Lt.

Did I miss your birthday Joe?

Happy belated if I did. :D

Great photography on the pictures, really nice stuff,

Michael
 
Lt.,
A defining picture! Is it Williams, Jones or Hook? I will never get over the fact that you built these buildings. No need for any others! I'm vacationing at Helpmaakar if you need reinforcements down at M' Lords KwaJimu!
Your most and obedient servant,
Mike
 
Thanks for the birthday wishes and comments it's really appreciated and I'm off and walking quickly into the next year;););).......Joe (aka) The Lt.
