15mm plastic models to represent the Iraqi armour that fell into the hands of Kurdish and ISIS forces among others in 2003 at the end of the Iraqi War!
5 T-72's and 5 BMP 1's, more modern US stuff also has ended up in their hands that previously belonged to Iraq!
These are a little too early possibly for the period but they are listed as still in use but probably later versions.
The BMP 1's weren't too difficult to make but the T-72's were a little more fecking harder to make especially with some fecking big hands issues!
That is a respectable horde of armour Fran! I played with these Team Yankee models when I was visiting Greg last week, and while they look to be very nice kits, I understand that they are a bit fragile and fiddly to work with. Are the choppers still to come?
You've been incredibly busy Fran! Nice work :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tamsin!
DeleteCool stuff Fran and I need to get some of those!

Looking forward to seeing what a good painter can do to these!
DeleteNice work Fran! Those T-72s are real SOBs to put together, but I have to say I found the BMPs to be decent.
ReplyDeleteVery true Greg!
