Description
Sher Ali Khan, Emir of Afghanistan 1863-66 and 1868 until his death in 1879. We have modeled him from a photo showing him in this Turcoman-style dress.
This figure could easily be used to represent any Central Asian khan.

I ordered my castings on the week-end and received the figures on Wednesday…wow…talk about great service! Also very glad to see someone doing the Russian Colonial Army of Central Asia…like the other review, I look forward to some artillery and Cossack cavalry to go with the infantry…unlike the other reviewer, by the end of the year both infantry units and General Kaufman will be painted and likely engaging my northwest frontier British in some unofficial skirmishes over control of passes between Central Asia and India…
