I've tried a few different patterns on a lot of 40K models, mainly US 3-colour desert and Multicam on IG and Lizard pattern on Chaos renegades, plus a few Soviet patterns on my 20mm bush wars stuff, as well as the Rhodesian. Great thing about guerrilla insurgent models is they can all be wearing something different.

I had a go at Belgian pattern 56 (think that's what it's know as, looks a bit like WW2 denison smock camo) on some 5 Commando ANC figures & a couple of different patterns on some 20mm Executive Outcomes models. I'm also slowly collecting some figures to make up a little Wild Geese team, so will have a go at DPM.

I love the mini-me! your 20mm look as well painted as the 28mm. Shame to see this thread locked.

Cheers chap, thanks for all the feedback. Having now had a go at 20mm Multicam, I think I'll stick to 28mm.
Looking at the size comparison it looks as though they are wearing uniforms cut from the same scale cloth.

There are some nice new additions to the Empress range, so I'll probably just get those, then save 20mm for my Bush wars stuff, the vehicles are a lot less expensive at that scale.
