Cardboard?? It looks amazing! Tin Shed is a magician with cereal packets... I am beginning to wonder if it is something on this forum that makes people reach for the cereal boxes? Great work and I will be giving that a go myself.

Got a mystery package from ebay today



Some of the models were not built very well and required to be broken apart and will require rebuilding
An AA gun that was built upside down on the trailer and also the guns are upside down on the mount
Need to find a picture of how the guns are supposed to be mounted


got this tank an M60?
Needs a bit of TLC


And two Mutts

Not sure what the gun is?

Have to be a recoiless rifle wouldn't it?

Great thread mate.

Sold my AK project off years ago, but it brings back some good memories  :)

Figures looking good.
I think those mutts might be mounting tow launchers instead of recoilless rifles? I know the Israelis and us forces had them.

You have to give AK47 a go. It’s really great fun. You get to buy some really odd 15mm gear, then paint it up in your own style/colours. I remember looking through the army lists thinking “what sort of rubbish can I afford to arm these troops with ?”

Was trying to get two forces together to have a game this weekend but I have not managed this is a picture of what I have so far
Communist Dictator force

The unpainted guys at the back are what I need to finish. A third TOYOTA to make and paint
there is a couple of options included here as well
Settler force

A couple of bases to finish in the second at the front
The fifth unit is nearly finished at the back, a unit of mortars
