Over on Instagram, js_customs581 has submitted this diorama via DM which he built in collaboration with legoarmy1

With the massive rush of White Settlers in the area, the natives in the interior and other surrounding islands were campaigned against by the British to be wiped out. Captain Harding, to prove the worth of his regiment, went and fought about 170 Kai Colo people at Na Korowaiwai. The fight only lasted about 4 hours, with only 8 British Crown soldiers being killed and wounded.

This is really good. I like how the water has darker patches of studs to to give the impression of depth. That's a neat technique I'll keep in the back of my mind.

I like this MOC a lot, the colors, the action. And also photos are done in a way that suits perfectly to enjoy every possible angle of the battle.
