Modern wars in 1/35- project log

Reinforcement for the Africans- he is kind of an era-agnostic figure, but I have an African faction in Modern era, so I will put him here. He could be a bandit, even a slaver, but I am a good guy, I call him a leopard hunter. (Leopards are very dangerous, they often attack the hunters looking for them in the bush at night. The local guys escorting the hunter usually carry a shotgun as a last line of defence in case of a sudden attack. This practice saved many hunters even novadays)

Another sculpt, an Afghanistan Soviet artilleryman.

Loving that!

Loving that!

Thanks! He is made for a D-30 cannon, the shell he is holding is from that kit.

[Freddy]

A new Middle Eastern guy.

Nice sculpt but I have a challenge for you. See if you can sneak that into someone's nativity scene. If you get caught, just murmour something about the 'church militant' or 'muscular Christianity'.

You mean like the shananigans with the 12 apostles themed bachelor party in the movie Heavy Trip?

Not seen that.

It amuses me and annoys my wife considerably to fuck with the nativity scene. Various decorative objects like a carved elephant displace the infant Messiah until they are noticed. It's my tiny act of revenge on Christmas, that most dismal of seasons.

Try and sneak him in with the Wise Men, see if anyone notices. Tell'em it's Balthazar's brother, the one that made his money as an arms dealer and helped out the PFLP in the '70s.
