Hi Gary,

Your Vietnam dio is fantastic. I love that Huey. Who made that bad boy? You've got me really interested in some of the jungle sets. I missed out on those huts which I liked upon seeing. Great stuff!

Huey and figures by Figarti. Long sold out I am afraid. Glad you like the display. I am a bit of an amateur but God loves a trier. Gary

Great diorama as always, Gary! I love seeing the new posts in this thread

India 1857 and the British East India Company pay the price for mistreatment of its native troops as mutiny breaks out. The regular British army takes over to stem the violence and afterwards the governance of the jewel in the crown of the British Empire.

I love the Brit's Gary. Nice clear shots with lot's of drama and action going on. Also, it is an unusual subject matter. Very entertaining!

Thank you they are old William Britains figures. Tradition do a nice range of Indian Mutiny figures. Would like to invest in these as I agree they make a colorful and unusual diorama.
