Thanks for posting these pics Ian.

The Papuan looks interesting, although the hair seems odd to my eyes. Most of the Papuan men who I've seen in uniform wore huge afro hair styles, hence the nick name "The Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels".

The Samurai archer looks very nice.

hi! Cobber,hows the body.....sorry old son hes not a Fuzzy Wuzzy Angle, hes a Sergeant of the ROYAL PACIFIC ISLAND REG, his face is taken from a Ivor Hele portrait and hair cut as such..the rifle is not the correct weapon the strap will have a more natural fall, mate great fun making his feet.....he! he!..

Great looking figures can see a couple of nice vignettes with the papuan and the aussie bren gunner and that samurai looks great I like the way the coat has been taken off the shoulder and tucked back and the bow dropping after the shot looks awesome
