Beautifully composed scene, it tells a story. Something eye-catching going on everywhere within the scene. No wasted space. Clearly, you are the master.

I particularly like the taller, broad-leaf shrubs. Steal them from the neighbors, again?
 
Awesome Mike you must have nearly all JJD figures.......................{sm3}
 
GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!... Mike, a perfect composition!

I don't collect the Sudan collection, I got the sailors and Gatling only, these are a marvel! I hope to see a Naval Brigade officer shortly.
 
Wow! Michael . . . . some of your best photographs . . . your Naval Brigade looks like they got their hands full . . . very nicely done . . .
:) Mike
 
Very nice contained display Mike and quite dramatic to say the least. Cheers, Robin.
 
Michael mate,
Outstanding dio and photos cobber. Your skill with the dio and the camera never cease to amaze me. Keep up the great work and keep 'em coming.
Hope to catch up in the Windy City.
Cheers Howard
 
That's a lively series of figures!!! Nice building. Who is the native gentleman in the red fez on the British side?^&confuse
 
thank you everyone for the kind words...

Ken...the "broad leaf shrubs" are "mini myrtle...available at almost any online dried foliage store...

Howard...enjoy yourself in Chicago...I'm sorry...but I won't be attending...

Scott...thank you...I made the building and dio myself...the "native gentleman in the red fez hat on the British side" is an Egyptian ally to the British from JJD's death of Gordon Pasha vingette...

Scott...here's a better picture for reference...the painting is by George W. Joy...John did a really good job on replicating the picture...I believe the fellow you are asking about is supposed to be Gordon Pasha's loyal man servant...perhaps you have seen the movie "Khartoum"...with Charlton Heston...

Mike,
Good to see you playing with the Sudan again! We need some good displays to revive the Sudan collectors. Great stuff..keep it coming!
 
Well another fantastic setup from the JJD dio artist per excellence :cool:

I naively thought I could avoid to expand my collection into the Sudan series - not so sure anymore:tongue:

Fantastic build Sir

Love the composition and attention to detail, superb!
 
Michael

That is stunning in every way. I would give it multiple Oscars (or better yet "Jenkins")

Best:

Screen Play
Set Design & Construction
Cinematography
Direction
 
So much action and great stories in a small space. You build and post fantastic displays faster than I can navigate through the forum's pages. Each one has some wonderful tips and hints for us novices'.

As always a pleasure to view your creative endeavors. -- Larry
