That looks really good John, I like the way you have set this out. What have you made the buildings out of, looks like card. Also, are you adding any people?

Might add some people and I made it out of Balsa wood, wood putty, PVA glue....

Clever. I like how you have made the structures have a almost fragile look, like how they would be made in East. No great slabs of stone etc. Simple but very effective.

Are you calling this one complete or, is there some more to add?

If its about 1/72 the Caesar Miniatures do sets of Ming And Qing dynasty soldiers ... Also italeri Do a 13th century Chinese cavalry set.

That's great john did you copy a photo or use your imagination

My local shop stocks them, but they're in the UK. I would imagine if you look online you might find a shop where you are that does.

Alternatively you could contact John on here and see if he could get them, the postage costs would be a bit though.
