I have a small, existing collection of Wargames Foundry 28mm Second Anglo-Boer War figures, and as part of my planning for 2012 I would like to expand this collection. My project theme for 2012 (at least for now!)
is to NOT start any major new periods, but to finish/add to some of my existing periods. Here are some pictures of my Boer War figs.

Perry Boers defending a Perry plastic house! The house is for the ACW, but works OK
for the Boer War. I should probably replace the shingled roof for a tin roof however for South Africa. I love these figs
and painted enough to do the "Duivelskloof (Devil's Chasm) skirmish scenario in Edwin Herbert's book "Wargaming in History - The 2nd Anglo-Boer War". I would like to paint enough figs to do a larger scenario, like the action on Spioenkop.
I have also considered doing larger scale battles in 10mm or 15mm. I would love to get my hands on some
old 15mm Naismith Boer-War figs and do a large scale battle like Colenso!
