Undercover Operator with SMG from Spectre Miniatures.

I went for Miami Vice or Vice City theme with this one. Its was also my first attempt at painting reflective sunglasses as usually I just go with plain black.
He is armed with MP7A1 sub machine gun.

So originally this was a police sniper in ghillie suit from Anthalonica(now called warfighter miniatures).

I converted him into special operation guy with modern type of AK by cutting of his weapon and left palm. I replaced it with AK-12 with under slug grenade launcher and a spare palm - both from Project Z Spec Ops kit from Warlord games.

I really like this mini and will consider getting few more for similar conversions in the future.  ;)

Two snipers from Spectre Miniatures.
Armed with Arctic Warfare Magnum and L129A1 Sharpshooter.
I tried to recreate The M/84 camouflage pattern of the Danish military on the few bits of their uniforms that are visible.

I started working on another group of Mercenaries/PMC types. This time the common them on all minis will be grayish blue uniform with brown boots.
They will have mix of different weapons and different tactical vests and head covers.

First up - RPG team.







The guy with M4 is supposed to be loader. Unfortunately there were no non-shooting arms in the box so I just gave him spare RPG ammo on the back. Its not perfect but will have to do for now.
