From MartinC: Jungle is Massive (175Pts)

 I've been laid up with the lurgy for over a week and not done much painting but the conversion of my entire house into a storage space for 28mm Vietnam terrain continues at a pace. I thought I'd add to my jungle collection. So I popped down to Poundland and bought one of thsoe really horrible plastic topiary balls and cut it up to make more.

Decided to make some large sections, each approx 10x6 inches with a mix of plastic palm trees, privet and other stuff

Think they have come out well

Overall they are 28"x23" x 2" high = 6.5 terrain cubes

Having finished the 10mm Poles last week I was about to start the Ottomans when I found a few more Polish infantry, not enough for a regiment but a couple of small skirmisher units

Then I started the 10mm Ottomans. As with all new units, irresepective of the scale, you aren't really sure how to paint them until you have painted them. These have come out OK but not as gloriously colourful as I would have liked. Odd considering they are painted magenta!

On the upside I have loads more to practice on.

Finally all good films deserve a sequel and it's back to books for another good film adaptation.

Obviously this is Bob Cratchett and Tiny Tim, cracking figs by Northstar

Scores on the doors

Jungle = 6.5 cubes = 130pts

35 x 10mm infantry = 35

Bob Cratchett and Tiny Tim = 10pts

Total = 175pts

That's a lot of jungle, Martin - it would look even better if you hit the plastic plants with a wash to tone them down a bit and maybe hit the edges of the larger leaves and palm fronds with a drybrush. The Ottomans look great - love their pink coats!
