Hi, Photos telling the story of Lt Melville and Coghill attempting to save the Colours at Isandlwana, during the disaster.
Please note, this is not entirely how it happened in reality, creativity, and the film Zulu Dawn also played a part...enjoy!

  • Lt Melville, Coghill was my great great grandad amazing write anyway thanks for the tribute video

  • Great dioramas! In reality, the colors would have been cased but that would be kind of boring to look at. There's some debate as to who killed Coghill and Melville -- Zulus or Natal natives egged on by the Zulus on the other side of the river.

    How would you model the river? Could you use epoxy for the water? Seems like that would be hard to get right,,,,
