20mm Argentine Infantry Platoon Part 4

Argentine Infantry Platoon virtually complete. Based on 7th Mechanised Infantry Regiment (RIM 7) who fought on Longdon against 3PARA. Recent research confirmed that they wore green helmet covers not camo so some repainting.
Organisation is a 3 man PL HQ, 3 squads of 10 men and a support squad of 2 GPMG teams. The super bazooka teams have yet to be done.

Not a big update 2nd section finished, same organisation as the 1st 😀

20mm Argentine Infantry Platoon Part 2

Here's some shots of the Platoon HQ group, a basic 3 man group of Officer, Sgt and radio operator, the radio op is an old Hotspur Miniatures figure, I also got Warbases to knock up a movement tray for these guys.

I also finished this RH Models blowpipe operator

20mm Argentine Infantry Platoon Part 1

I've started work on a standard generic Argentine Rifle platoon for the Falklands War. The force will have a standard platoon arrangement of an HQ group, 3 sections and a support section, and I'll also be having a number of support elements.
I tend to not get too drawn into the paper orbits as invariably on operations and deployment these change because of casualties and personal movements.
I've mainly used  Liberation Miniatures figures by RH Models, I've always liked the style and they are easy to paint.

To start off here's my first rifle section, 10 figures organised into 2 5 man teams, the first team has the section commander and 5 rifleman, here's the team below

The second team has the assistant section commander, a rifleman with the FN FAL heavy barrel and 3 rifleman

For the support section I've gone for a section leader, 2 GPMG teams and a couple of ammunition carriers.

Next up in Part 2 are the Platoon HQ group and the first support element, a blowpipe operator.

Argentine .50cal Teams finished

Managed to complete the .50 cal teams, some little details added to the basing, ammo boxes and spent cartridge cases.

Argentine .50 cal teams part 2

Work progressing on the teams, with multiple figure bases it's always a little awkward painting in situ so I tend to paint everything first then base it.
the .50 cal and main rocks painted

 I always like a little clutter on the bases, so I've scratched up some ammo boxes, I'll also add spent cartridge cases as well.

 Crew flesh and first stage of the uniform done

20mm Falklands project - Argentine .50cal teams

Back to one of my longest running projects and I'm hoping to concentrate on my Argentine forces. First up are a couple of .50cal teams, Liberation figures. I'm basing them on a single 3 man base with a look of the Longdon positions, so rocks on the base.
What I'm starting with

 For the rocks I'm using some bark stuff I found on line

 The 15-25 refers to the piece size in mm, here's a close up

 I'm painting the crew separately then add them after the bases are nearly done
