Royal Netherlands Army Squad

Here's my Dutch squad to support the YPR 765 I did earlier. I got the figures from Shaun at S&S back in January. They are excellent figures with lots of life, and they are easy to paint. If done in CADPAT they would probably make good Canadians as well, so that's a bonus. 

I found some good miniature photo tips online and tried them out, and I'm pleased to say this is the first time my figures look better on the screen than in person!

Finnish ISAF Conversion

Here's a conversion for a Finnish Army infantryman in Afghanistan. I swapped the gun and helmet on a Caesar plastic American, shaved off the details, and added new details with milliput. Then I painted it with Vallejo. It was interesting to paint the arid M/05 camo. 

Modern Russians- One Squad, Two Fireteams

This is my Modern Russian squad, mostly using Orion figures (the figure in the gasmask is Caesar). They will serve against NATO forces in my fictional 2016+ wargames. The uniform is the new Russian Digital pattern. The squad consists of two fireteams of four figures (one RPD for each) and a squad leader, who is depicted in the two detail shots.

I was really happy with the Orion figures. They may seem sparse on detail when they are unpainted, but painted they become little beauties. My hat comes off to Orion for this effort.
