Title: Police squad and Cars for Frontline Heroes: Modern warfare
Post by: tereydavi on August 08, 2024, 11:32:52 AM
Frontline Heroes: Modern Warfare is nearly finished. Soon, I hope to be playing games in a modern setting.

At the moment, next faction composed of police officers is almost finished, just needing some details added to the bases.

There will be more factions like soldiers, bank robbers, cartel members, mercenaries, gang members, militiamen...

Those are looking very good indeed!

Everyone should have a bunch of police officers in their collection; they're useful in so many scenarios.

The vehicles are nice too; they fit right in. Did you do something to the windows by any chance? Like matting them from the inside perhaps?

Those coppers do look good. 

And you're right about having police.  I have some US police in my collection from Crooked Dice, and Central American police from Brigade Games....

I totally agree indeed. A group of policemen fit almost any modern scenario.

The Cars are 1/43 diecast toy cars. I applied a coat of matte varnish to avoid that shiny look this kind of Cars usually have. And the varnish mattes Also the Windows (I don't usually like how the interiors look, but don't want to paint black the Windows)

I use 1/43 PD cars as well.  Even found some Policia cars for my CA police...I even have a Police car for my US Prohibition Era gangster stuff.

Mine are on Page 1 of my "Modern Stuff" thread...

Agreed, everyone needs coppers, if only as ambulatory figure 11s. I have West German and now generic Caribbean police in my own collection as well as military police for the UK, US and Soviet Army.

Nice work on those rozzers!
