It is hard to accept vague approximations after going to the craigo-lego site,
my gosh those customs are dead-on.  I am going to start really trying for 100%
accuracy (or as close as those lil' lego parts allow).  What is lost in scale
and sculpt can be acchieved with paint and accessories.  I am going to work on
some Zulus this weekend if my sons and wife allow, then I'll post some pics
for your perusal.  Talk to you later.

~ something that i did to augment my islanders, even though i was thinking
"zulu"....

i removed printing from a pair of royal knights teardrop sheilds and used some
zebra stripe stickers (from #260 lego idea book, cut to fit, there's enough to
cover 4). they go SO well w/ the zebra drum covers. i've also traded out the
black spears, bows, and quivers to the islanders from my indians, which now
look better with the brown accessories.

later ~ craig
