Dear Tony I allways use your DPM procudure as a jump off cos its ace check out my mt longdon para 200mm - wanted to use the DPM pattern but represent him filthy and soaked to the marrow post attack first time i have cam creaned a figure too, battle prep and all that love what you are doing with...

Yep and they take some getting thru - que meaty mouse hole charge !!

MOZ has an alternative head with this fig now - marroon beret may be worth checking out:thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb:

Erm , maybe a taliban / afghan compound wall as background - hard baked mud (so hard 30mmm struggles to penetrate sometimes ) and straw roughly plastered and washed white but heavily weathered,if you were respresenting the snatch of a high value target from the green zone near the helmand river...

No Worries Callum I think your Regt is also one to be proud of... so many battle honours, and as for the brave Sgt Mackay - a well earned VC from a very staunch battalion, when you look back at the assualt on Longdon it was a hard fought infantry action before an age where we take Night vision...

Tony thank for your kind words - these big kits are a lot of work and I think it turned out Ok , but thanks again for your positive comment best regards Chris

Marc, My apologies, whenever i worked with the dutch marines they were exclusively drssed in NL/UK DPM - your pictures do indeed show at least one gentleman dressed in US ERDL - so I am more than happy to stand corrected - as said your paint job is first rate , you did ask for comments so...

Best Version of this i have seen - really magic - some evocative groundwork will really bring out your hard work the MTP is spot on - sincere congrats And as for the pics we aint all photo facists on pf Chris:thumb:

Lovely work edward congrats

sorry to be a pain , the grips of the pistol are not metalic neither are various elements of the US M4 / canadian diamaco rifle as you have painted them, and may be mistaken if the figure has the final two fingers cut out of the gloves but they do not seem propely painted they look like bare...
