All quiet here for a few weeks I know but things have been moving on … there’s a couple of accessions updates to log and I’ll add some reviews and modelling notes in due course …
AK47
Some special forces have arrived: French inspired security types (Professionals, you’d think) made up from the excellent Peter Pig French Paras plus some other odd spares …
(P.B.Eye-Candy: Peter Pig 15mm figures for AK47)
You might notice there is one of those splendid Recoilless Rifle motor scooters in the unit …
Home made from the PP weapon and some aero modelling spares, I think it turned out OK and has been on my list of cool kit for some time (a box has been ticked) – remarkably, French paras had them in Algeria …
PBI/NQM (WWII)
… and I have cobbled together a PBI platoon from some trial items Chris Kemp gave me …
Now he’s a big fan of Plastic Soldier Company (not really my cup of tea) and insisted I try a Blitz truck sprue and some Fallshirmjaeger …
I built the trucks OK …
I’ll insert a link to a review when it’s done (so you can see what I think of them) … they’re OK, and I’ll use them to ship about a platoon or so of paratroopers.
I added a pack of PP metal ones to the plastics to make up a viable unit (and I have to say liked them a lot more than the PSC ones) … anyway, here are some pictures …
