Ah, good choice!

The SCAR, is it for work or play?

Nice, is that for work or play?

I managed to lay down some primer and while waiting for that to dry, I did some building: 7.62, 5.56, 40mm. The front sight of the 40mil will be fitted once in place, likewise the sling for the M4. The tube of the 40mil is not misaligned, it is open for loading. The barrel of the SCAR moved...

In reply, I think this link predates the video... https://archive.armorama.com/features/7464/index.htm Again, Airborne Miniatures US SF, I should get a commission. After finishing the figure in the guide, I cut off the right leg above the knee, scratch built a prosthetic replacement, to...

Welcome aboard, Canterbury Coxswain, good to have you here. Which Canterbury is that? NZ or the mother country? Surely not the other one in the republic? I've just come off shift and am looking forward to a couple of days working on these guys. I ditched the foil in favour of drilling out a...

Why stop at drilling out the tube... I thought I'd make things a little more interesting and show a couple of the grenade pouches empty with a couple of fired grenade cases as his feet, see attached image. I'm scratch building the empty pouches out of lead foil, and "what do you know about...

Yes, I expect I'll pick up the NCO; great work on the camo of each, too.

Progress of sorts, clean up of parts continues... I drilled out the 40mm tube, not recommended. I drilled a pilot hole then went in with a 3mm bit as 4mm would have destroyed the tube wall. That's a 2mm bit to demonstrate the bore is through. Check out that air bubble, the hand is checked for...

Same here, and another option is the Falklands War, equally overlooked

thanks gents, face is healing nicely, if a little crusty, nothing was broken, thankfully; currently on night shifts, but resin cutting is well and truly underway. All things being equal, I expect to break out the glue and primer this weekend, early next week. Nap - The camo is the...

And, just in time, a new book on the matter, too: https://www.penguin.co.nz/books/the-siege-9780241675687 Question, please: will the large scale figures, I'm thinking I "need" a 1/9 SAS (or two) in my collection - I've not done a full black figure, be scaled up versions of the above or new...

As mentioned, I love it, it tells a story and conveys tension, the three figures work together very well, clearly looking for the threat ahead. Well done

Second figure, no glue, pushed together to show fit and overall pose... I don't think that mag in pouch is meant for this rifle, it looks like a 556 to me.

First figure, the leg are sitting on the shoes, there is no glue; the arms are also just pushed in to show the fit. One feature I really like about this figure is the inclusion of the sling for the rifle. Nice. I would have liked some direction /instructions for assemble of the 40mm grenade...

the inspirational image,

yep, working on the premise that 2 is 1, and 1 is none, I'm doing these two guys from Airborne Miniatures (first image) in tiger stripe, original (second), not desert (third - CIA), as it is one of the few camos that I've not done. I am hoping that Airborne might release a US MOPP figure (forth)...
