They re very nice but... I think you may have put a bit more work on the pieces of cloth under the howdahs... Maybe it's not historic ? but it looks "flat" and "unfinished" to me. OK, I'm evil )

Hi Greg, that's a fair comment; I've seen models with elaborate designs painted on them, dragon's and such, based on (I think) Persian art.

But I didn't want to spend any more time, and was worried whether I could I manage to paint the same dragon on both sides of each elephant. Maybe I will come back to them, one day. Or paint a dragon on the next elephant in a few month's time....

Christopher, yes they are very nice models!

Mario is going to send me a third elephant, shortly. I also intend to paint at least a couple of the elephants that Aventine will be bringing out shortly, and I am sculpting a dead elephant model for my Zama project. It's the year of the nellie!
