My SHED force! Are an on-going multi-genre and scale project.

It started with 28mm scale WW2 guys in Berets. Mainly Brit Paratroopers.
The Idea is a similar one to Marvel's S.H.I.E.L.D. But of course being British...What with the cut-backs and economy being up the spout! We couldn't afford all the letters or even something for the "Acronym" to mean! :D

Also their entrance to their secret HQ is a SHED! ;D

Anyway. Here's what I've done so far with one figure in 1/32nd. Airfix Paratrooper Officer with a bent SMG barrel.

These look great you could also use Timpo and Armies in Plastic still relatively cheap and available especially the later.

Thanks for the link! :)

Again thanks for the compliment and the idea. I have a friend who owns a Model Shop in Birmingham as well so that helps! :D

Anyway. Here is a find from the 99p Store near where I live. 16 Skeletons to use as Temple Guardians in a pack for the surprising cost of 99p! :o



Various poses and even more due to the soft rubbery plastic they are made from! Hot water and cold have to be used due to distortion but for about 7p each? What can I say? lol

I've included the earlier figure for size comparison. There are some with wings in the pack but contents vary!

 :D Thanks but my main scale is still 28/32mm "HEROIC!" Scale. : lol

These guys are merely dabbling. (And a nod too my childhood of course!)

I will return to Jaffa very soon. ;D
