A British Company ready for a South African tour

The latest figures to roll off the production line for Geoff, these are the 10 British figures that I kept back for an IHMN company.
The three characters - 2 officers and a man waving - which means he must be important.
It's hot work under the South African sun.
A couple of lads about to break into 'Men of Harlech'.
And the last three - two bearded types and another loading pose. I don't know why I ended up with two of the same pose, there were plenty of others. I can't have been thinking straight.
I really enjoyed painting these figures. If there had been no Zulus in the Zulu War I may have even seen the project through to fruition... To be fair I did contemplate just doing the 1881 Boer War with British and Boers, and that was probably quite achievable. Never mind, it isn't as if I don't have a whole pile of other projects to get on with.
