Hi Juergen, good question. I'll have to look back through old orders to see where he came from...

Finished these:

Just went for a rummage through paperwork, the snapper came from Black Cat Bases

Some continuing nice additions.

Before purchasing from Black Cat Bases, best to read this thread first:

Great updates Ash! Makes me want to dig out my Mongrel 5 Commando mercs…

Ash · « **Reply #69 on:** May 24, 2015, 12:03:54 AM »

Looking at the pics I realised I hadn't done the final washes to the faces, so will tart them up and re photo.

@ Earther: I think you should dig out those minis, it would be rude not to! I managed to get hold of a complete set, at least I think I've got one of each. I'll dig them out and post some pics when i finish off the RAR faces.

@ von Lucky: That's an interesting thread. I bought the snapper last year. Placed the order near the end of October, recieved nothing, had no reply to email inquiry. Finally chased the payment via Paypal in December, got message saying the seller was ill, then a couple of weeks later an envelope arrived!

Slightly off at a tangent, but for anyone interested in the Portuguese army in Angola; I just got a copy of an old Al J Venter title from 1969; 'The terror fighters'.
The book is in near mint condition and has signatures of both Mr Venter and the photographer Clote Breytenbach. The cover is damn good for it's age and the back cover photo has also been signed by a Captain Ricardo Alcada, who features in the text.

Rather chuffed with this...

Picture credited to Clote Breytenbach

Thanx I will have to look for it ,I love A.J.Venters books.

Arlequín · « **Reply #72 on:** June 08, 2015, 09:15:27 PM »

I'm quite chuffed that it shows a rare pic of a Portuguese soldier with a Sterling SMG, I've only seen one other.

Here's another:

Is that a Mills bomb in that guy's pocket or is he very pleased to see you?
