The last in Daves trio of World War Two far eastern figure fest ends with Airfix's well intentioned but maligned Gurkhas. Again Dave has painted them up a treat, but the fact they are wearing a tunic spoils the actual figures.
Safari suits aside these are well thought out figures for the most part with only a couple of questionable poses.
Since it's 5 minutes to Christmas day I had better wrap this up.
Cheers again Dave, and well painted. Merry Christmas!
Great job! And meery christmas!
ReplyDeleteFantastic blog.............Have a very Merry Christmas and a great new year.
ReplyDeleteBoth these sets from Airfix are ok..not as good as the matchbox set though, but I just loved the guy with the thompson..the pose looks like he´s been lifted out of the back streets of 1930´s gangsta land and dumped in the jungle.
