Excellent! Are those 1/43 diecast models (for example, from one of those DeAgostini collections)? I've got a couple of Piranhas from that range (when they were on general release by Schuco, and I think they work quite well, especially with larger figures.

Really nice! Love the buildings and the environment! :-* Which company are those kids/civilians and goats from? And the vehicles, both military and civilian?
Love your project!

I fear the vehicles are from the excellent but expensive range from Carlo Bardelli.

Civilian are EUREKA, and some other modified brand (also ancient).
Goats are MAGISTER MILITUM, the unique similar to afghanistan goats.

The civilian vehicle is a 1:43 diecast, if you don't use TAG mini is a good scale.

The military vehicles are CARLO BARDELLi model with strong customizaition, the best (and unique) model for italian Army.
I have some other military 1:43 model,if you use EMPRESS or EUREKA model the scale is not perfect but the effect is good.

Building and all other scenery object are homebuilt.

The Carlo Bardelli vehicles look very good, but were can we buy them? His site doesn't really explain that little tidbit (as far as I can see)

Thank you for the references, Enionline!

I have the same doubt than Predatorpt, as that Lince looks wonderful and I'm feeling quite tempted.

You have achieved quite a nice work up here :).

My partner worked in Herat a few years ago and used to visit the Italian base there. If you ever want a scenario idea, then looking after their next shipment of wine and ham would work – they always had the best supplies, all the other foreign nationals were very keen on going there for meetings. I wonder why!  lol

Very nice work and great to get a good preview of the Italians, I've just ordered a selection of packs that were going cheap.
