This use of the dining table can only be used during the day while my wife is at work, it has to be packed up before she gets home from school.

Robin mate,
Outstanding layout cobber. Like the way the backs of the buildings can be viewed from the rear. Did you take an photos from the rear. Keep up the great work and keep posting those photos. You are a credit to the Aussie collectors.
Please don't forget also the gathering of Treefroggers next June in Brisbane.
Cheers Howard

Very nice looks great all set up and takes up quite a bit of space.

WOW! Very, very nicely done Robin. I remember the days when I used to set things up on the dining room table - then my wife kicked me down to the basement - the woman has no sense of humor . . . .

This is where I did a local display (no selling) in a swap meet. This was back in April so it was missing the storehouse and quite a few extra figures that I have now. Rorke's Drift across the pont to the large mountain of Isandlwana (also lacking in figures awaiting release). Next time I get to do a display of Zulu, it will look heaps better and hopefully by than there will be some artillery to add also.

Hi Robin,

Thanks very much for sharing your nice AZW display.

The Defence of Rorke's Drift is one of my favourites.

Cheers, Raymond.

 

[villagehorse]

Thanks Raymond, just need to drop in the redoubt and a 2nd wagon on the back defence wall and I think I have nailed it by all photo's I have seen of the layout in book's. The animal enclosure in my other photo is also as the layout is in books. Cheers, Robin.

That is very nice! I have both the buildings now as well, but only about 20% the number of figures you have there... Britains did a great job with Rorke's Drift, the best IMHO! The Rorke's Drift series by Britains has been my main collecting series in the last couple of years. I hope they continue coming out with new poses for both the 24th Foot and zulus next year to add greater variety to the display.

Robin,
A great diorama. Looks like you have a lot of fun with your displays.
Now all we need is a guide with arrows indicating where all the VC winners and Smiths and Jones's are !!
Regards

What about the surgeon?

Robin...your collection..."large and in charge"...love your work...always a pleasure to watch...

Very nice, W Britain's Zulu range is very impressive. I too do not have enough space to display the entire range. I have both buildings, but I do not have the room yet.

Thank you for sharing your display with us.
