Got quite a few done this week and here's the proof! A mix of TAG, Empress and Old Glory.











Plenty of blah and more pictures over at my blog: http://6milphil.wordpress.com/2012/08/20/troops-out-for-the-lads/

That green is a Vallejo: Verde Uniforme 70922 Uniform Green, the closest spray I know to that is Greenskin Primer from Warlord.

Thanks for the info. I think I'll go with paintspray then black details with a brush.

Very nice. I can't see the MG on TAG's site, do you have a code for it? I must get one.

Thanks Red but that's not the right gun, that's a GPMG and Phil's is a .50

Old Glory makes modern British? ???
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

Old Glory UK bought Brooks Miniatures. I don't think you can get them from OG USA.

Might be worth an email to them if you're interested, though. Or maybe a UK LAFer can help you out.

To the OP - thanks for posting those, and nice work. Good to see that the various manufacturers all mix well enough. I must look again at TAG for the .50 and some prone figs.  MTP is a pain in the arse, isn't it?
