Modern US infantry Squad in ACU
« on: 18 December 2014, 09:16:04 PM »
These are by Eureka except for the medic who is by TAG.
The Eureka minis are incredible, one piece minis which deserve a better paint job than I can do.
My one quibble with them is the thinness of the M4 barrel tips. I already broke one in team 1. >:(
I will be using these as TN NG or US Army in my ATZ games soon I hope.

Mod if this is not the proper forum for them please move. I'm sorry, but I wasn't sure where contemporary troops go.

I am heavily indebted to Mssrs. Jas and Elheim for their great ACU How To's over on the Ambush Alley and Guild Forums.

Thanks for looking.

The ACU (actually UCP) camo is done very well!

The barrels are always a problem, either they are realistically thin and break or much too thick and look weird. Maybe it'd be better to drill a tiny hole and insert a short end of wire/metal rod.
