Title: Korean War - Part 3 released!
Post by: Leon on 21 July 2018, 04:40:45 PM
Part 3 of our new Korean War range sees the British released!  

With 3 different dress types, this is the largest of our Korean ranges with 42 new codes on offer covering summer/tropical kit, winter kit and Commandos as well.  As with the ranges released so far, we've got loads of infantry options, mortars, command, artillery crew and more, and Phil's done a cracking job with them.  All of the guns for these ranges will be arriving later in the year.

It's a Bren, the ammo cartridge is up on on his chest, but the blackwash has found a notch on the gun and makes it look like it's a separate bit.

Thank you Techno.

My birthday is later this month ... coincidentally the anniversary of the Korean War Armistice.

I do allow myself an extra Pendraken Ordering Day in July as a birthday present to myself.

I just let the 'labs' chew small bits mixed green stuff until the figure 'looks right', Ian :P ;)

I think that's listed as the US senior officer, KUS27?

Ok. If that is a left pull beret, then he is senior French officer, The rest of the French contingent can be in US helmets and caps. Give another nation.

On the Proxy front, this figure can feature in a wide range of games from Indo China to Algeria to bush wars,

Can we get an image of a full frontal ? Show off that unique French beret. I believe this figure must be unique in post war 10mm sculpts.

I'll see if I can get one on my phone, I had to turn him for the web photo otherwise the map wasn't clear and he looked a bit odd!

 :o Shocked!

I may take the michael about many things - your Welshness, your ability to get lost (which to be fair is a baseless accusation), your age, propensity for self harm, remoteness from civilisation, your interconnectedness with all things since 1972 and your general physical appearance, but I never, ever, ever disparage your ability to make wee men out of green putty.

Unless, of course they're ice skating.

Or kneeling.

Or prone.

OIK ! ;)

Your card's in the post.
I'll 'mail you in the next day or so......so you can choose 'sommat'.....That I WILL make as a 'one off' for you.....and one day I'll get Lemmey's bloody meercat finished off....If I can find it under all the dust in the drying tin.

When you get a chance to prime, paint and base, do post an image or two.  :)

Not currently in this first batch, we're hoping to add some more sculpts further down the line but we'll have to see how the sales go.
