WIP Critique Operation Nimrod - or 50 shades of black!

[Henk]

Am I right in thinking that the shotgun is primarily an entry weapon, as in to blow the hinges or lock of a solid door, and very much not a weapon to be used in a hostage situation, in close contact, in convined spaces?

I’d say you are probably right there Henk.

I’m pretty sure they didn’t have tinted lenses on their masks back then also uniforms were more a blue not all black as images provided Your piece is looking great though

Thanks Judd, hadn’t seen the first reference shot before and I think the second one is a screen grab from the Six Days TV series.

Most of the available references I’d found were fairly inconclusive. I did have a comment on Facebook saying that the kit had originally been green and dyed black.

Either way, the intent is to include just enough variation to make the project interesting to look at. Hopefully I’m on the right track.

Cheers, kempie

Coming along nicely, I imagine the finished article will be something rather special.
