Title: 28mm Vietnam-new project
Post by: Mr Mipps on March 01, 2010, 10:56:44 AM
Hi chaps, just thought I'd post a few pics of the first in a range of 28mm figures for Vietnam

(http://www.parkfieldminiatures.freeservers.com/P2280001.JPG)

These along with four VC figures should be ready for the mould over the next couple of weeks

Very nice. Looking forward to seeing the VC.

Now all we need are a team of Tunnel Rats with .45s, privately acquired revolvers, and a riot shotgun!

Looking good , I'm painting some TAG figures at the moment and some more figures would be handy . Another Platoon worth would be even better.

And the correct 782 gear as well, would be great. Also, how about some Marines in Marine Corps covers. I'd buy a platoon worth. heh
