Very nice! You've done very well with the Multi-cam; not an easy pattern to paint. The chap in the back middle in the patrol cap looks a lot like Gunnery Sergeant Johnson from the Halo games.  :)

I like those! Excellent work.  :-*

I did mine in Marpat which is a damn sight easier to paint. Looking forward to doing the soon to be released SEALS, although I'll be avoiding Multicam again and painting them in the new AOR2 pattern, which should be pretty much like painting Marpat.

Thanks mate I will take your word for that I just got handed the models to paint other than the fact they are a rather enjoyable diversion from fantasy stuff I usually paint I know nowt. :)

Look great and spot on!

Without sounding big headed I had no problem with multicam, I actually found it really easy, just got my multicam trousers out of the cupboard and studied them for 10 mins picking out the colours I thought worked from my paint carosel.  The guy originally said AOR2 but when I spoke to him and said multicam he was all over the idea, on the grounds I was able to do it well enough, said I would give it a go.  If you don't attempt something you never know if you can do it :)

Very nice! And I'd have to say Rafterman looks like the chap out of the Bad company series, whos the modern equivalent of the sci fi chap in the Halo games xD

Care to describe your painting technique?  I'd like to learn.
