Your paint conversion of the FOB RN figure looks great.

Very nice Mike. SOHK certainly has appeal. Can I ask where the cobblestone mats came from?

Seems I've missed a number of post by you Mike of your latest photo which has provided us with a nicely done story line bringing us back to days gone by in China. Very nicely done Mike. Looks like you and Randy are on a great adventure in time....The Lt.

Besides the release of the "China Marines", its the colorful pieces that has attracted me to this range John.

Scott, the mat is the new flagstone mat offering from JG miniatures #JGFM01 which I acquired through TF.

Hi Mike,

What a wonderful collection and what a splendid display! It is beautiful! Thanks for posting the pictures!

I am interested in the wall that stands behind your Chinese shops. Is this wall commercially available and, if so, by whom?

Warmest personal regards,

Pat

Great stuff. You have all the makings of a thickening plot in this international community. I do not have anything new nor am I expecting anything soon so I fear you will be doing a solo act for a while. My TS budget will likely be going to Bill Hocker this month. I also have to start saving the awesome WB War Along the Nile series.

Keep the pictures and new additions coming our way to enjoy.

Randy

Excellent Mike, keep 'em coming

Beautiful photos Mike...love those colorful figures.

Being the "visual" person that I am Michael, the color is really a BIG attraction for me. Just like the K&C Crusaders and Saracens.

Thank you very much Pat. I actually make the walls myself using a master photograph of the K&C Jetty wall which I created and saved to my computer. Whenever I need another wall piece I download a copy of the photo and then cut and paste it to a piece of 1/4" Elmer's foamboard. You might want to check this thread where I first discuss this technique.

I'll do my best Randy. My China expenditures are quickly coming to a close also. I must start saving for the new WB ACW sets that are coming our way.

Excellent Mike, keep 'em coming

Thank you Martyn, glad you like the photos.

Great pix, Mike and I am inspired!

I've just received a couple more SOHK sets today. No room for them in my current set up though. Will have to get cracking with building the next part of my port town. Anyway, a couple more pix from my setup

Mike

Your Chinese city is absolutely outstanding and I love the feel of its hustle and bustle. Everything looks spot on. Is that some of the Magic Water for your harbor? I have a great idea for an addition to your splendid setup. I recall a similar marching scene in the Sand Pebbles:

I meant to buy this set as a "one-off" but never got around to it

That is a gem. I wish K&C would make a new Marine to go with the current rickshaw set.

Here's hoping WB makes some more Zouaves to go with that stretcher bearer Have you seen the forthcoming Conte Zouaves?

Hi Randy

It is the only "flyer" I have with SOHK sets, I wasn't sure if you or Mike had the set or had even seen it.

Cheers
