PlasticSoldier Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Hi, I have had my birthday recently so I've decided with the money I have received, to spend a bit on a diorama of the Battle of Rorke's Drift. At first I thought I would have a really hard time trying to find figures and accessories for it, but I didn't do too badly with the help of Ebay and Italeri, HOWEVER, as hard as I try, I literally cannot find some sort of hut or cabin anywhere. The ideal one I found was in BUM's set 'Cabin Attack' but I couldn't find a set for sale. If anyone knows of a website or anywhere where I could find a 1/72 hut/cabin like the one in BUM's set 'Cabin Attack,' (log walls, no pretty windows, any type of roof as I'll be covering up with straw) at a reasonable price, please comment below, Many Thanks, PlasticSoldier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TallBlondJohn Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Don't forget the herd of cows. After the film had been finished they were given to the extras - apartheid prevented them being paid the same as white actors but the cows' value made up for the difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I thought about the making the hut but I thought that might be too much of a tricky task for my standards 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's actually quite cool. I love the film, it's what inspired me to do this diorama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am using the figures though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
