Production continues without respite here with B Coy of the 1st Battalion. Above Matchbox ANZAC's once again, with the Officer figure making it the Command stand. Nice figure down to his watchstrap.
Platoon stand of riflemen. I used a few different shades of green to mix up the uniforms a wee bit. As the far east and clothing (especially Jungle Greens) faded quickly with use.
Whoo hoo ! Airfix Australians this time for this Platoon stand. I painted the US pattern leg gaiters to a British 37 pattern.
Last Platoon, both Matchbox and blending in nicely to the base. I always add at least one Bren gun into each Company, this helps spread the MG figures to get the best results in irregularity.
Company frontage. Some of these figures I have had since the early 1980's and I must admit it is very good to actually give them some paint even if it's 30 years late!
I like this unit, OOBs to follow

Cheers fella's. Yep now I think back to all the great battle I had back at my parents house as a kid it suprising I still have more than a few of them left. We used to play on a old disused tennis court at one stage leading to some huge actions!
