Bedouin army by Alan Ferrency
I needed to take a quick break from working on my Bedouins so I placed my paint tray in, what I thought was, an out of the way place. Soon after I heard a crash whilst I unable to do anything about it. When I returned to my painting set-up I found a white monstrosity sitting in the middle of all the chaos - quite unconcerned. My almost completed Bedouins had been scattered to the four winds.
After searching as best I could, and consulting my army lists, I realised that only a few figures were lost - 3 x camels, 3 x camel riders and 1 x chariot wheel. Having just purchased a box of Bedouins to get a miserly 2 camels I was not best pleased.
Guess that I will just have to 'bite the bullet' and order yet another box! Still one man's misfortune is another man's profit!
Later - with a new surplus of Bedouin foot - I re-arranged the deck chairs. The camels I could now manage but all the riders not so. Time to rummage around in PSR. The Zvezda Carthaginian box ZVE8031 has 12 Numidian riders (6 without shields) so I looked carefully at them.
