20mm US Marines project
« on: May 22, 2024, 10:59:21 AM »
I wouldn't dare to suggest the US Marine project is complete (as if any project is ever truly complete in this hobby!) but there's enough here that I'm ready to put it all into a blog post. Very happy with progress so far. Lots more about it here http://thetacticalpainter.blogspot.com/2024/05/second-world-war-us-marines-in-20mm.html

Thanks. Main uniform colour is VMC Green Grey, highlighted by mixing with a bit of VMC Buff.

 Thanks, I've got a pile of Marines sitting in the basement. Hopefully this summer I can get to them.
