Been planning to rebase my British Paratroops for a while, and here is some progress with that project, as usual spare figures donated by Paul

Most of the Revell figures will get Esci heads, and I'll try to add slings to as many figures as I can for a bit of variety

This one has since been rejected owing to the size match of the donor arm once fitted; the officer's pose will be retained but another arm option is yet to be decided

I plan to repaint the whole lot also, so this project my take some time.
That rejected pose would make a good casualty figure lying down as in the last shot.
ReplyDeleteNice work mate.
the grenade thrower is a great looking conversion!!!

Good luck Al - looking forward to seeing the finished products!
ReplyDeleteWhat rulesets are you using with modern troops?
ReplyDeleteGood to see you included that old Airfix radioman too.
ReplyDeleteThanks boys but these may take a while. Dave, we use CD Modern: x2 figures on a base = x1 platoon of about 30 men, x1 vehicle = x3 Check out this link at see for yourself if it's what you're after mate

Cutting up figures and putting them back together is still in the "advanced book" for me
