All,

As previously mentioned, I've been painting my butt off the past 18 months, knocking out a ton of projects.  Fresh on the heels of completing my 24-fight campaign in Vietnam (you can find the start here: https://blackhawkhet.blogspot.com/2021/01/two-brothers-fight-1.html), I immediately set about getting things ready for the second tour of duty, so this post catalogs all the stuff I've built, painted, based, and bought.  Yeah, there's some stuff in here that I actually didn't paint myself, I bought painted.


I got some Hatchet Force indigenous personnel from my buddy Jimmi at Flashpoint Minis...


I got some cool dudes (US Advisors pictured here) from Martin at Peter Pig...


I finally got me a CH-34...


I got some CH-46s to make my buddy Thomaston happy...


I even got my jarheads some CAS.

To see a bunch more pics of these minis, plus a bunch more stuff not pictured here, please check the blog at:

And that's that, everything is ready for my "Two Brothers" second tour.  I've got several more WWII projects completed that I'll be posting soon.

V/R,
Jack

Thank you, gentlemen, and you're right Pierre, too big a part of the war to not have them.
