Would you happen to know if they pair well with Spectre: Operations miniatures, scale wise?

Here you go, hope it helps.

Thank you for posting that!

I'd say the Spectres might be a bit bigger, but would still work fine together.

No worries  ;) and yeah before I put them together I though the specter was smaller as those plastics from warlord felt a bit chunkier.

I'm renaming this thread and will keep updating it with all my modern minis.

So I got a police sniper in ghillie suit from Anthalonica(now called warfighter miniatures) a while back. It came with broken barrel and I tried to fix it by replacing it with metal rod. It went ok I guess but the more I looked at him the more I disliked my repair job. So today I decided to cut his original weapon off and replace it with AK-12. I'm super happy with how it turned out.




I'm also considering adding spare mags and helmet to the base but I'm kind of hesitant about this and I worry that these extra parts will overcrowd this small base.



For the record - the seller offered replacement but originally this mini came with police sniper rifle with shorter barrel. Which wouldn't be great as most of my minis are military/pmc types and I really bought this mini for the camo suite.

Its waaay to hot to paint so I'm building some objective markers instead.
These are supposed to be black market arms dealer weapons for sell on display. Or some bad guys storage room props.

Those gun tables look great. Where did the weapons come from? Are they 3D prints?

It looks like they're from various Project Z sprues from Warlord Games.  I have those same weapons...

Yup, the guns are from Project Z Spec Ops and Apocalypse Survivors kits.
