Turks for Gallipoli.

Finished off some more Turks for the 4000 figure diorama of the Battle of Chunuk Bair.

 These guys are very similar, in pose, to the last lot of Turks I painted.

 

 There are many more photos of other wargamer's work on the official blog "Mustering the Troops".

 From memory this diorama will be about 10 meters long. Should be rather impressive.

Started on my last bunch last night. All going according to plan they will be done by the end of the month.

MORE to be seen here.

Please take a look.

    Great looking Turks, Rodger. Looks like the figures are pre-based on particular sized ground work?

      Hi Dean. The figures have pegs about 3- 4mm diameter and about 20- 25mm long sticking down from their feet. So this is what I did for the photos. The "ground " is a brown paper bag over a piece of polystyrene. The figures are then pushed through. Drop a few rocks and some grass tufts around the place, and done!

    Fantastic, I'm also on the tail of the dog with mine. Great pics. I've been wondering how to get some snaps of mine before they go off to Wellington. Very inspiring!
