20mm SADF
I painted these troops quite a while ago but noticed that I don't think they're on the blog for some reason. 20mm Liberation figures, I have a platoon of "Troepies" in standard gear with bush hats on usable as 61 Mech or citizen force units
3 man Platoon HQ and 3 squads of 8 men
Close up of the Platoon HQ
One of the squads
As a force multiplier I also knocked out 2 4 man patrols from 32 Battalion Reconnaissance Group.
They required a bit of research and are wearing the 32 Bn specific camo which came in 2 patterns for summer and winter. 32 Bn was mixed race and the 2 white guys are wearing "black is beautiful" face paint.

White Dragon Miniatures 28mm Modern Brits
I saw the new White Dragon Miniatures 28mm Modern Brits at Salute in April and was very impressed with the quality. I already have a full Platoon of Empress Brits so a bought a pack of 4 figures to see what they painted up like. Here's the link to White Dragon Miniatures
The figures are cast in a plastic resin which is very easy to work with.
One of the guys painted up
And a comparison shot with an Empress figure
Slightly more heroic in stature but will mix if you already have Empress.

28mm Brits for Falklands and South Armagh
Recently finished off these 2 MoFo figures, a Sniper and a Radio Operator. The sniper had a telescopic sight added and the barrel altered as well as hessian straps layered on his ghillie suit from green stuff. The radio operator is unaltered except for the addition of an aerial and handset cable. They'll be seeing service down south as well as Armagh.

28mm Spectre Miniatures by Andy Zeck
I've been looking for a painter who can assist me in the lead pile for a while, with regard to Spectre Miniatures. If you're on the Spectre facebook page you'll have seen Andy Zeck's work. I really like the gritty/dirty look he gets to his figures so I eventually sent him 6 of the Tier1 operators for him to work his magic on. They arrived today and I'm very pleased with them, excellent communication throughout the process and exactly what I was hoping for. I can't rate him highly enough, wouldn't hesitate to use him again cracking stuff!
