| Dervish mounted riflemen |

| Same as the first picture, but different angle. |
Yesterday, I finished painting the five Dervish cavalry that come in each box of Armies In Plastic 54mm toy soldiers. The infantry boxes have 20 figures.
I was a bit leary of painting the cavalry at first, thinking that the horses were a tad too large relative to the size of the infantry and Camel Corps mounted figures. However, once I started painting the figures I really enjoyed working with them. The poses are very dynamic and the horses are some of the most elegant horse models that I have ever seen.
I finished the figures off with two coats of Testors spray gloss coat. The gloss coating seems to be thicker and more protective than the Dull Coat matte spray. Stronger and tougher is very important when you are using soft plastic figures.
I like these models well enough to buy more boxes of the figures and eventually create a 30-figure regiment of Dervish cavalry (I know, the Dervish didn't have "regiments" per se, but I don't know what else to call them.). So four more boxes are on order from Armies In Plastic which will give me 25 cavalry figures. I will order one more box after I have worked my way through the new lot.

| Here is what the contents of one AIP box looks like when painted |
The picture above gives you an idea of what one box of the AIP Dervish cavalry will look like after it has been painted. They are easy to paint and simply a joy to work with.
My next unit is a 20-figure group of Dervish riflemen. I already have 20 riflemen painted and this will eventually be a 60 figure unit.
After the riflemen, I think that it is time to get back to painting the British Camel Corps.
I want to thank Dr Emu a very powerful spell caster who help me to bring my husband back to me, few month ago i have a serious problem with my husband, to the extend that he left the house, and he started dating another woman and he stayed with the woman, i tried all i can to bring him back, but all my effort was useless until the day my friend came to my house and i told her every thing that had happened between me and my husband, then she told me of a powerful spell caster who help her when she was in the same problem I then contact Dr Emu and told him every thing and he told me not to worry my self again that my husband will come back to me after he has cast a spell on him, i thought it was a joke, after he had finish casting the spell, he told me that he had just finish casting the spell, to my greatest surprise within 48 hours, my husband really came back begging me to forgive him, if you need his help you can contact him with via email: Emutemple@gmail.com or add him up on his whatsapp +2347012841542 is willing to help any body that need his help.
