Start of my Afghan & African collection

[Dangerdaz]

Back into wargaming after children have all grown up & I find I have a lot of me time.
So here are the first units for Afghan.
3 para n 2 downed copter pilots & Taliban with a few Al Queda added.
Painting done by Mark of overwatchcommand as have zero skills in that dept!
More stuff to follow...

That's a good start. I like the bases.   

[Dangerdaz]

Thank you.
Here's some work in progress pics..
The digger n the van were die cast eBay specials..being suitably weathered up.
The figures are all Empress..Rules will either be Skirmish sangin, corner of a foreign field or the Spectre rules.
Small to medium skirmish sized games with some black ops type stuff included.
Although I'm also tempted to run a fictional country setting. Time will tell.

Really good stuff, where are the vehicles from?

EBay mate. I got the van for a couple of quid n the digger for £6.50.
Bargains....
Asked if Mark could make them suitably weathered & gameable & this is the results thus far..

I'd say that's a great start to the collection.  The bases are very well done and those vehicles are wonderfully weathered.

Cheers for the positive comments.
In all my excitement I forgot to post a pic of my first completed unit.

that is one badass collection you have there sir.

Colour me super-jealous.  Great figures, great paintwork.  Hugely impressed.

[Dangerdaz]

Thanks for the real kind words guys.
Mark is great & seems to nail what I ask for.
Lots more to come imminently...

Lovely paintwork indeed- a great collection. One minor thing- the shalwar kameez (the top and bottoms Afghans wear) are always sold and worn in matched sets- so one colour. If you're not gaming with someone who's been there or a trainspotter on such things it really doesn't matter. Beautiful paint jobs regardless.

[Dangerdaz]

Thanks for the tip/knowledge😊
Here's the Seal team...

They all look great. Much better paint job then my own.
