You have a wonderful collection and look so good on mass. That mountain pass is a beauty, really sets off the column of troops so well.:salute:: Robin.

Great diorama Luiz ! I was trying to spot one of my Great grandfathers out there in the RIR, who was a French horn player !

Wow John,
Thanks for sharing.....
When I went to India in the late 80´s it was not as bad as today, but already tense so we were recommended not to go that up North! A pity for I would have loved to see the geography, the Khyber Rifles and all....
