Title: Operation Restore Hope - Somalia 93
Post by: tinned fruit on 09 March 2024, 01:40:06 PM

Came across my 20mm forces for Ambush Alley's Blackhawk Down Scenario book and decided to revisit Restore Hope but concentrating on the operations outside Mogadishu.

Of course I hadn't got any suitable terrain so put these together using off cuts from a previous project, some creme eggs wrappers and some lovely 3d printed bits from Sabot3d.

Thanks for looking.

Nice! Very vibrant colours. Somewhat reminiscent of the La Boca district of Buenos Aires. Could do double service should you contemplate street fighting between Boca Juniors and River fans. Just use a toffee tin for the Boca Stadium, it's what it most closely resembles anyway. :)

Great looking stuff! I love all the detail. I'd probably dirty it all up with a black wash, but that's me... lol

Very nice.  And likely quite versatile...
