Superb piece my friend, well done 👏

[Ash]

Thanks for the kind words chaps, always very much appreciated.

I still appear to be churning out Futon sized 'sandbags'.
Don't seem to notice until I add the little blokes for a picture.





Currently out of 'Nam' stuff.
Only other things that I might add are from the Indochina range; Vietminh assault troops (probably with some head swaps) and the recoilless rifle teams.

[Ultravanillasmurf]

That is very good.

[CapnJim]

Love that bunker.  The Duster looks good, too!

If you're going through withdrawal, you can paint some of my Nam stuff for me... 
I won't even charge you for the privilege...!

Despite telling myself no more ARVN airborne, having done an MG team to go with the advisors it seemed like a plan to at least do a complete squad.
Picked up a couple of packs that should provide enough bodies inc an M79 bloke.
So far just a few head swaps. Probably going for a mixed bag of camo patterns...

[CapnJim]

Very good, then.  Looking forward to seeing them painted...

Wot he said.

[Ultravanillasmurf]

As they said.

[Ash]

Cheers Gents.

Here's the first section with paint:

Brilliant mate. Is that Bulletproof cam?

Brilliant mate. Is that Bulletproof cam?

Thanks Rick, yeah 'ti's my attempt at it.
I'd had a go at it before on the' Norman' figure, and few extra bodies for my spares box.
It's probably a bit brighter than it should be and possibly missing another shade of brown in the mix.
I did this lot to match the previous attempt.

[Rickf]

I'd say keep it as it is. Although based on British windproof, as you know, it was a richer/more vibrant palette. You've captured it well.

[carlos marighela]

Oh those be gorgeous!

[Ash]

Thanks guys.
Here's the next section.
Went with that ARVN version of ERDL (same as the rangers) on a couple of helmet covers, then the chap with the longer jacket I tried the older French Lizard pattern.
