US ARMY Armored Battle-Suit "Grizzly"
« on: April 11, 2008, 04:08:58 PM »
I've been doing the dreaded "overtime" at work this week and have had no time to really do much in the line of modelling or painting.
I managed to throw together a simple Re-paint over the last two evenings in the form of a US Army Battle-Suit.
It's a "Mashinen Krieger Melusine" in suitable US livery ( Courtesy of AGIS putting me on to these excellent minis!!!). The Pilot is a converted Copplestone mini.

I'm going to try my hand at making some "Nose Art" decals for the others.

Any how, back to my German Super Tank......

Mighty swell, old chap!

Amazing how that specific design has a "one size fits all" flair. Looks great both in German and US paint schemes, and equally at home.
