This week’s picture ( I’m changing this concept’s name from Picture of the Day to that of the Week since that is the frequency with which I will post favorite pictures going forward) comes from a game in February 2019 that was played at General Pettygree’s Barracks. It was a 28mm Sudan colonial era game. The Dervish were attacking a British-Egyptian fortified town (sound familiar?) and out of nowhere appeared a fleet of dhows that were packed full of Dervish warriors. This picture reminds me of a scene from the movie “Khartoum “ and is a photo that I’ve always liked. It is well composed with a nice background free of clutter.
The boats were made by Chuck the Lucky and they really look the part.
Fabulous looking little ships. Is that a volcano in the background? LOL!
ReplyDeleteA great looking picture! Great stuff!
ReplyDeleteA grand photographic treat!
ReplyDeleteIf they were make by Homer Simpson, instead of Chuck, would they have been called "D'Oh"s? Just wondering.
