I was looking at some 72nd scale kits because I also do that scale, and I was thinking of scenarios that could involve artillery on the front line. We think of guns being far behind the line but ac...

@Geoff Maybury Halloween is America's best holiday. (Christmas is better.... But doesn't belong to America.)
@JTam You guys over the pond do things with "style", ours are cardboard😭.
@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy The rifle is a Sako built Finnish M39. This is a good read on the type: https://www.guns.com/news/review/the-most-deadly-mosin-in-the-world-the-m39 The stupid "I am 18...
@vissly cao That's awesome. Really nice build.
Or a simple design like this: As a nod to their heritage... When their forefathers deployed by parachute instead of grav suspensors. The 101st still wears the glider/airborne cap badge as...
Wonderful little collection. I really regret that in France, it is almost impossible to have such weapons, except to have them neutralized. We clearly see the "Suomi" adjustable rear-sight on this...
Thank you very much, brilliant models. They give them a lot more room than they do in our country. Cheers, Geoff.
@JTam Thank you for sharing these lovelly DInos and other animals, don`t Know why but I could not acksess it till today, and had been really looking forward to seeing them. Well worth the wait copp...
@Grumpy Gnome Yes the bigest part of the opp being Kanyangese Troops but still tragic that the leadership being French ex legion Mercs. Three attempts to find cause how rediculace, and what a shamb...
To JTam... That's nothing, because many men and women refused to be enslaved, especially in the Southwest of France (military hidden units, like the Corps-Franc Pommiès, and Spanish Republic...
Honestly, I am looking forward to every single set. If only I had more time to paint..... 🎨
It just dawned on me that those caps, with a bit of trimming the brim, might make good proxies for Corporate Security caps as seen in Andor. Perhaps with the more armored Stargrave bodies.
The usual Cannon Fodder plus Stargrave bits. But a nice simple and handy group. Could be henchgoons. Easy painting job too. I happened to spill a pot of Vallejo and needed to paint as many model...
I need to stop using the phone camera for these. The colour balance is off, or it picks up too much infrared or something.... some touchup work left to do. And I think the kneepads need to be white.
Nearly done. The Ultraviolet Berets just need flocking and a few tweaks (as usual, eyes are my nemesis. I also haven't worked out their shoulder patch design - black circle with a violet rim, but w...
You don't often need the fluro paint, but when you do, you're glad you have it. Even though it's a royal bitch to use.
@JTam I made it,used some old parts.
A Gray showed up a my neighborhood street party! Some pretty solid '50s retro vibes.

@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Nicely caught on the rear sight. The simplified sight on the Swiss version is eminently practical... But slightly surprising from a Nation of famed marksmen....
@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Fascinating stuff. Thanks for sharing a unique perspective, and the family history!
Definitely: (Although I'll join the chorus. I wish they had dropped some heads (still don't get the GI helmets) or the cannon arms to get another body on the sprue.) The Raptor Cavalry. ...
@Geoff Maybury Reference: Interesting. Maybe. That would be great because the Eisenkern mule is an amazing kit. Looking at the picture: Yellow - He is definitely holding a...
@Geoff Maybury Reference: Could be. Could be. Yes. Looks a lot like an ammo crate, power cores, and a water cooler or similar. Possibly folded stretchers stored to th...
@Alessio De Carolis Well the pyramid of needs is real.
@JTam so am I.
@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy You're right, in human history a LOT of revolts started more for lack of food than for lack of civil rights.
@Mark Dewis Thought it was a cracker on facebook,looks even better here larger.
@Alessio De Carolis Bigger than the old Arora Kit, but you are very right, flattern the top, and its a good copy.
@JTam The photo on the left I think is something for the Ooh-Rahs, at first i was thinking along the lines of the "Power Armor " front, now I wonder if its a"Medic cradle" like on "Iron Cores" mule...
@JTam @Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Don`t know about you two but Allo, Allo is sudenlly much more exiting I must be having a nostalgia blast. So looking forward to these female resistance, much more than I e...
@JTam Long Low boxes ammo?, Tall item power generator?. Small round frezer box (beers).
My good JTam, you put it on the bullseye ! If I base myself on what the elders used to say at home, two things led to desobedience first, then to active resistance : lack of food (requisitions : f...
