As I started on my Vietnam war project during the summer and have finished a few miniatures now I thought it is time to start on some terrain for my games. I got a 3D printer from my wonderful wife and so the terrain making starts. I got the Anicubic Photon 3d resin printer a wonderful machine indeed.
I got an STL file of a carribian hut which fits in with the vietnamese rural landscape quite well. I printed the file and build it using superglue which worked quite well. I painted it with my airbrush and a few washings based it and added a palm tree ( available on eBay) and here it is:

My local 3D print service did that one for me as well, it is a marvellous piece which will serve through much of temperate Asia.
Cheers,

Here is the Blooper gunner for my US Marines for Vietnam. He is armed with a M79 grenade launcher.

Platoon is a 1986 American war film written and directed by Oliver Stone, starringFTom Berenger, Willem Dafoe, Charlie Sheen, Keith David, Kevin Dillon, John C. McGinley, Forest Whitaker, and Johnny Depp.Here is my take of Staff Sergeant Robert “Bob” Barnes and Sergeant Elias. Both figures are a set from the Wargames illustrated magazine .

Good paint job.  I just bought those two myself, but I thought the one in the right was the character played by Charlie sheen, Elias was Defoe was he not?

Sorry but can't tell as the figures you get are definitely the two sergeants from platoon the good and the bad guy so to speak

Which they call Sgt Barnes and pfc Noble.  At first I thought the same as you.  I like the figures however so it doesn’t matter a hoot! 😉
