Small Scale Military Headquarters

Hi all,

Well just finished these bad boys off They all have working holsters with Intoyz HK USP pistols in them.

As you will see these guys are in Desert Flecktarn which is called Tropentarn.

As you will/Will not know. GSG9 is a Police Special Forces Counter terrorist team. KSK however is Germany`s premier MILITARY Special Forces for International terrorist affairs where German civilians/interests are at stake. They like GSG9 have had teachings-Combined Ops with UK & US Special Forces & In Afghanistan also with Australian SASR.

Well to the figures.

First here`s a Photo of German Tropentarn.

Well Done
The Camo is excellent. I recognize the Chap Mei dude with the shades. He is a great modern headsculpt. That's some fine bashing.

Thank`s very much Digger for the kind words

Must admit I`m pretty chuffed with the Tropentarn here
Took ages to do,Used a thin Paperclip I straightened out & did the dotty camo,what a chore......LOL Though I think Well worth it in the end

The best part though was how easy it was to adapt the PTE Desert figure (parts of) to look like Tropentarn

Again Thank`s

Thank`s very much Tomd Though I kinda think I`m the British version of YOU.......LOL We Both Post on the BIG side of things Don`t do a figure,we do a unit.......LOL

British and American troop building??? you bet ya!!!

PS I really like the belts and leg straps

My dream is to have a playset with a standard (dressed) figure with tons of add on equipment, headgear, webgear and weapons...t

Thank`s again Tomd. The straps for the thigh pouches/Holsters are both Black Ribbon & black elastic taken from 1/6th weapons (used as slings).

The add to the figure for realism & they don`t hinder in the figures articulation either

Again mate Thank`s

Steel,
I always like your creativity and your international forces approach.
great job!
I always think that there are many other great armies out there which also do their great share on the war on terror and other conflicts.

keep up the good job!

HOOAH!

Thank`s very much mate & I totally agree with you & In my own way I am trying to Honour all those Brave souls who DO have there Lives on the line in the fight against Terror.

I`ve got an abundance of US SpecOps & troops & also hardware. I`m doing rather well with my British contingency (well have to make sure my own Nation is well covered don`t I ) & the German Forces have played a Huge part in Afghanistan.
Plus I just love Flecktarn & Tropentarn camo & the G36 & there fighting spirit,even if the last 50 years has had that somewhat kept on the QT. Germany has a Long & Proud Military History so are Just deserving of attention.

My next Nation is Australia,I`m doing a team of SASR & a 6 wheel Landie for them

Also Plan on doing some GROM too. After that not sure BUT will be doing more.

Again Thank`s Ranger

Well,
keep me posted of your creations!

Gurkas?....especially the modern type?

that is a most see!

I would like to do some 1/6 Spanish soldiers....any ideas?

people say a lot about their pull out but they did their duty and their country also suffered. Plus they served in Kosovo...keep me posted if you have any ideas.
thanks.

Ghurka`s are on the cards Ranger. Have to do Ghurka`s. Actully have a few VC heads so may give those a go as Napal heads.

As for the Spanish,your right all Nations who took part even if they have pulled out still deserve recognition for there work & there forces lives being put on the line & alas lost in the course of the War on Terror.

As for 1/6th Spanish,well there camo is like a lot of nations now a US BDU derivitive IMO,so maybe SOTW or HASBRO Woodland camo (as there both different to DML,BBI Woodland) uniforms & covered FRITZ helmet & arm them with Armoury either DML G36.
The webbing though,think that`s going to be your choice of a Brand type or maybe make your own using said material from Hasbro/SOTW.

Just an idea.
