Ok - I didn’t see this coming ... and you can firmly blame Martin C of this parish , a zoom chat and a libation or 3 . A few weeks ago we decided to do a large Vietnam skirmish game. . Of course Martin has already been there bought them , painted them - but hey - I will muller him with firepower in the end !
I have opted for Gringos40 sculpts . They are very nice indeed. So I have a stash laid in that will be the focus of the next few weeks .
So after a little bit of testing and working out my paint recipe here is the USMC Lt.
Given I am used to knocking out large 36-48 figure units regularly it’s going to be fun concentrating on a small number of figures.
The proper firepower will be along in due course... who doesn’t love a loaded Skyraider- well apart from Martin..
So one 28mm figure - 5 points
Great, but I'm going to be the USMC, you can be the NVA
ReplyDeleteyes.. but .. have seen how good they are at ranging in..
DeleteIf MartinC gave you liquor and then jumped off a cliff would you do it too?
ReplyDeleteGreat looking grunts and looking forward to the air support.
ha.. of course I would , if he buys me enough alcohol !
DeleteSkyraiders are very cool...

Great figure, lovely colour scheme. Looking forward to more!
ReplyDeleteVery cool Dave! I didn't expect this for sure!
ReplyDeleteWonderful brushwork Sir!
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice figure and a fine paint job. Are you going to do this as a major project or just a side show?
ReplyDeleteExcellent stuff Dave!
