Thanks for showing us this one Tommy - I've been waiting and hoping for a peek at some of the "Dragon Crest" variety of Trophy.

All the more interesting for me - as I'm currently painting up half-a-dozen more castings as extras for my Egyptian Cavalry Band - which don't look all that different to your lovely Camel Corps Standard bearer. Dragon Crest didn't produce a Standard Bearer for the Egyptian Cavalry by any chance - did they??? Johnnybach.

Thanks Martyn. Camels are next. Great diorama photo of yours. It is really neat how you recreate the scenes from those old illustrations. Tommy

Great sets, Tommy. When Trophy of Texas became the master Trophy distributor, many former Trophy dealers stopped carrying Trophy, so I never saw many of the Dragoon Crest sets before, including these. Thanks for sharing them with us.

Do you, JB, or Martyn known what years the Egyptian cavalry wore the blue tunics with khaki pants? Also, I was wondering about the accuracy of this particular blue color since some other manufacturers have them wearing a darker blue.
