Britain’s desert army in one box: this 75mm scale figure set gathers four representative figures of the Sudan campaign, 1880 — a Guards Camel Corps trooper, a Royal Naval Brigade rating, a Royal Artillery gunner and a Royal Engineer. Sculpted by Alan Ball, together they make a ready-made Victorian colonial display or the core of a larger diorama.
The set is supplied as multi-part figures, unassembled and unpainted, and requires assembly. Any groundwork shown in the photographs was provided by the artist and is not included. Not suitable for children under 12.
Painting this set
Four different roles in a shared palette of khaki, blue and white make this a satisfying project with plenty of variety — our Kolinsky sable brushes give the control for faces and detail, with a dry brush for the dust and kit. Prefer them singly? See the Camel Corps, Naval Brigade, Royal Artillery and Royal Engineer in our Victorian miniatures range.
