Hi Haron & Guys!

This is the Boxer Rebellion - Peking (Peitang) Cathedral. French and Italian Sailors protected over 3000 Catholics here, including Priests, Nuns, and Chinese Converts. They were under heavy attack and were relieved/saved with the others. For a real picture, see Osprey Campaign 85 - Peking 1900 p. 52. This conversion resembles it in that it has 4 high bell-towers and a cross, with Chinese buildings on both ends. It was made from Giant of Hong Kong reissue Knight's Castle and BUM Churches (6). I cut off the bell towers from 4 of them and pegged them to the Facade (front) wall. I also hand made Chinese-style roof pieces for the corner buildings to put on the top corners. The last 2 Churches are original and just set inside the walls. Can you see the wonderful Orion Chinese Women with Babies running for protection inside the 2 Churches? Soon I hope we have French and Italian Sailors to fight with the Russian and American sets soon to come out! Thank you Haron. I hope this is OK to do on your Forum. I made this just for your Chinese Boxers of the Boxer Rebellion. Cheers - David Hennen
