From MartinC "You don't know what it was like Man" (120pts)

 One of the best things about the challenge is starting and finishing a whole project that you weren't planning on at all. This is the case with the Vietnam project. 150 figs, 3 APCs, 1 helicopter and some jungle in about 4 weeks. 1st game tomorrow to test the rules.

These are the last of the planned USMC and are brilliant figures as always.


3 four man fire teams

the same figs from slightly above. I'm really pleased with the painting on these figures

another 1 and 1/2 fire teams plus command figures

Added a LAW to the 2nd from the left front row guy. Pretty sure it's the wrong one but i had this one.

Overall I have a reinforced platoon of 3 sections, each of 3 four man fire teams and a 2 man command team, plus 2 four man M60 teams and a command team. The LAW guy will be swapped in depending on the scenario

Score = 24 x 28mm infantry = 120 points.

  8. They really look the part - great job. This is yet another of my distractions which has been simmering for ages - got a load of the original Baker Company figures which are (very) slowly getting painted. Your output is somewhat faster . . .

    1. Cheers, I do paint quickly, especially when the mood strikes. Not a race, a hobby
