Title: 15mm USMC for OIF
Post by: Si Tyler on 09 June 2014, 11:13:43 AM
10mm have a break with my eyes (and that much Khaki in one go ;)  )

My USMC have had some attention applied with four new AAV-7 added. The hulls have the EAAK kit fitted which is normally plain green.  I also added the rear antenna mounting by drilling out the hull, inserting a piece of plastic rod to make the mount and then drilling out the rod to fit the antenna.  The blobs on the end of the antenna was made by using GW liquid green stuff and then holding the model upside down until it had cured.

and a 13 man squad given a refresh of paint.  The next squad are going to have woodland body armour covers and green webbing rather than a rough coyote brown equivalent

The USMC M1A1s have just been added, just need 4 HMMWV for the CAAT

So, are the vehicles Peter Pig as well? The aerials certainly give them a certain something.

The AAV are from Irishserb. The M1A1 are from the Zvezda Hot War range.  The HMMWVs will be Peter Pig.

The M1A1 have needed a bit of work to go from this
