Description Scene for Rober C Frink of www.bizarretravelbook.com/ and his coming story 'Ivory Miniature'. The story is set during the Indian Mutiny of 1857. The elephant is supposed to be an African one, though.Β

Well, Asian or African, that is a frightening place to be... Great illustration!

Wow, you even got the larger ears down right. Some people make the mistake of drawing small ears for a scene like this when the small eared elephants are primarily Asia-bound.

Nice! XD

Well that is an impressive story. I'm not sure how much of it I believe, but it's certainly impressive. I was going to say they should make a movie out of it, but I see they have already.

Looks like epic stuff. Now there needs to be a version in English...

Isn't it?
It's been long enough on the folklore to be believable. It's also not the weirdest improbable badass setup that was confirmed true!
And it befalls on us to enjoy the historical ride and, well, make a movie out of it

Are those Bengal Lancers in the foreground?

That's what I based them on. I happened to have an old Airfix model of a Bengal Lancer (Skinner's Horse) which came in handy for reference.

I thought so. Β I painted up a bunch of these guys for a miniature Northwest Frontier Campaign many years ago. Β We could of used some elephants!

Things kept from years ago can often come in handy, it seems.Β

Great image with stellar details. Β Shame of the human race to drag other species into our own fratricides.

Yes, but we break up a lot of fights between various sorts of pets so it probably cancels out. Cheers!
