My favourite elephant...

is the Garrison 25mm Carthaginian one...
 I'd always considered it to be too big for my 20mm Garrison armies - well, it is really - but it's got a certain style other elephants just can't match. Even if it is 40 years old. It is 40 years old - I painted it in 1974!

By the way, it isn't finished yet. My original intention was to put a dfferent picture in every panel but I eventually just gave up on it.

    He is utterly splendid!
    BTW I was lying in bed and thinking about figures I had in the early 70s- mounted hoplites who were one piece castings (horse and man) with shield and spear.Do you recall them and who made them?

    Some very early Minifigs were one piece castings, don't know offhand of any others.
