As in, 1960s Yemeni rebels, not the ones in the news as we speak.

I've sculpted seven figures, armed largely with Lee Enfields as well as a Sten and an MG34.

Those attending Salute will have a chance to pick up a set, Nic will have a limited number available.

Oh dear Kosta! You have great plans to break my wallet

Fantastic stuff! I'm looking forward to painting mine. Now, do those beret and Glengarry head variants to the Brits you promised, there's a good lad.

For folk wanting a little back ground and some footage of the insurgents have a look at this.

Plenty of old footage including colour footage showing traditional dress. If you forwrard to 14.46 of the video, you'll see a mixed column of NLF and tribesmen from the Radfan. Just goes to show that with a different paint job you can het some further use out of some of the ZANLA guerillas Kosta sculpted and mix them in with these tribesmen.

Usual brilliance.

I bought a small pile of these at Salute (virtually all those Nic had). They are simply superb. I look forward to this range expanding.

Anyone know where I can source a 1/56 Saladin armoured car or two? I have a Dinky model, but not too sure of the scale...

The Corgi Saladin is perfect, scale wise.

Gorgeous.

Oops forgive, so it is. My bad.

Thanks for the confirmation about scale.

Thanks for the positive comments gentlemen.

I'm working on some Scots in Glengarry caps too, which will be completed pretty soon.

Woops, I really should have mentioned that these will be available from Eureka Miniatures. Until their official release, you can drop Eureka an email to order a set.

Great news! If not figures any chance of some beret heads for those of us willing to do the surgery ourselves? Many of the photos of fighting in the Radfan and of course IS in Aden itself show troops in berets. I'd be up for another two platoons worth myself.

Cos it's always worth a play.... 700 Glengarried Men.
