As a member of the 1879 Zulu War Talk forum a fellow member by the name of Steven Collins created an outstanding 28mm Diorama of the Zulu War. Explore Stevens Gallery of his 22 January 1879 Isandlwana Diorama. The creativity of it with it's layout the painting of his fingers an accessories along with his photographs are outstanding. There's no doubt those of you who take advantage of his galleries slide show will marvel at his work.

Very cool Papa Z and thanks very much for sharing them with us. I have made a mental note of these to use for my display.

Remarkable. The whole dio is just outstanding. The landscaping of the terrain and the detail of the figures is unsurpassed, IMO. I like Durnford's last stand and the figures taken from Fripp's painting. Just fantastic. -- Al
