WW2 AUSTRALIAN COMMANDOS 2

I have finished painting the Australian Commandos. Here they are. Nice figures but I really don't know how they can ever be used in wargame if they play their commando role. Their basic tactic, as one of them put it, was 'Punch and Piss off' which does not make a very interesting game. And yes Owen guns often came out of the factory painted in camouflage colors. I did a minor bit of conversion on the figure with the rifle turning it into an EY grenade firing rifle as by 1945 this was the only type of rifle they tended to use apart from sniper rifles.

Just painted the first of the new Warlord Games WW2 Australian Commandos. Here he is. I got these last week. There are ten minis in the pack and I am looking forward to painting them.

40mm SEAL

This is a 40mm mini (Honourable Lead Boiler Suit Company) that I painted quite a while ago. The other night there was a very cool moon above my house. I took a photo of it and then thought of using it as a background for a photo of a mini. This image of a SEAL emerging from the ocean is the result.
