Just noticed this figure in the shop as last figure on the NVA list. Excellent news, not sure how I missed him.

Cheers

A big thank you for the bag of Female NVA Leaders in ChiCom cap work has begun on creating some Pathet Lao with conversions of your female Vietcong.

My two forces for 68 are currently growing, terrain  is being built....

The figures have inspired our club to get heavily involved, and our painters table is groaning....their full out as everyday a fresh parcel arrives from you.  Currently painted by the club is

150 Americans
250 NVA and Vietcong

They love the crispness and definition


On behalf of the club thank you

These figures just get better and better.
Loads of character and plenty of action about the figures

Hello All,
just a small post about elements from my modest "battle of HUE" diorama I am building using your miniatures Ged. I made some tests today (improvised, the gates are not yet painted on the second image) with your Marines I have painted and I definitively like your miniatures poses. It will be a good game to find the historical pictures that inspired you and try to recreate them in 28mm!

Yes this is a scratch built display diorama for my own collection.
It will be 120cm long street with buildings on both side. It is targeted to represent a possible street between the MACV compound and the citadel gate. I have some pics of the making in my User's gallery (https://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?action=gallery;su=user;cat=1320;u=15251).
I initiated it once you started to deliver that range. I will integrate also your US Army grunts, painted as US Cavalry rescuing the Marines. Not historically accurate but...
And for the cars, as your minis are "large" 28mm, I can reuse 1:43 diecast models I had, as 1:50 vehicles (Solido Kaiser Jeep trucks) and tanks (M48 from Corgi).
I will post later when I will have a fully painted 40cm section.
