'Tis done. Couldn't find any suitable decals, and as my freehand numbers skill set is non existent I decided to leave it blank.
I do have a crewman figure who will end up squeezed into turret hatch.

Just caught this thread and I'm really impressed. Fantastic camo throughout and the period stuff is very evocative of its era. I love the realism. Great old school choppers and T34 85 looks boss.

**Dreadclaw69**

Nice work. For the numbers what about a stencil?

**Ash 1**

Think these are done:

I got hold of another one, the Trumperter T-34/85 1944 version. Very similar kit to the Dragon, but no etched brass, also the tracks are too short, unless you stretch them, so I did it as a wreck.

**RandyMcStab**

Really gorgeous, what weathering powders are you using? I'd like to get into that but know nothing.

It's just a bit of MIG 'light rust' pigment sprinkled over the base coat, then sealed with a coat of varnish.

Had a go at making some huts to go with the Bush Wars stuff,I think the next ones will have a thicker roof:

Really Ace, exalted

After watching this Youtube, I decided to have a go at a T-55.
Got hold of one by Trumpeter:

Excellent as always, do you play games with these guys at all is it more for the modelling? They'd make a great display board already.

At the moment I'm just collecting, but the intention is to use them all for gaming.

I picked up a couple of armoured cars to add into the mix. A Ferret MK2/3 from bw models and an AML-60 from ACE:

**RandyMcStab**

Nice, I love armoured cars, I converted one for my Guard out of a nice Ramshackle kit. What rules would you use?

Finally got around to painting the paras. Made a bit of a mess with a couple of the rifles, ended up buying some more from a company called BM, but they were as too small as the others where too big. Ended up chopping up then mixing bits from both.

Not posted anything here for a while. Finished off a few bits:

A couple of AML-90 to add to my RhACR group.

All three together.

Some more EO troops. Mix of Elhiem and Under Fire miniatures:

Some Cubans:

Finally, some 32 battalion blokes to shoot at them:

**Rewdan**

Holy gak you're alive! Still producing great minis too.

**gunslingerpro**

You have done some truly amazing work! I may have to consider getting into more modern stuff! Bravo!

**Ash 1**

Cheers chaps.

Got hold of a little ZPU-1 kit from model-miniature, came with some nice little bits to make up a scenic base.

Really love the 28mm guys they would make great models for IG and they are way more to scale than GW models

**Ash 1**

These Eureka 28mm could make interesting IG:
