28mm Rhodesian Light Infantry and Alouette III G car

I really like these Eureka figures and they were a joy to paint, I have an original RLI camo jacket in my collection (belonged to my uncle Ken) so I had a very good idea about the  camouflage, I loved the patrol pose and the weapons are superb sculpts, I used a SLR  and mag 58 during my service so happy to see them so well done.

The Alouette III  G car helicopter proved to be a much tougher model with a lot of fiddling to get it correct, I strengthened the blade connection with wire and plastic card, I have also made a stand for the beast as it is too heavy for the wheels, I am very happy with the result also. A great kit but needs some work and patience. 






Vallejo colours German Camo beige, cavalry browm, olive green, Luftwaffe green.

Finns Finito

Off the desk last month some Eureka and Foundry Finns, three rifle batns and some support elements.  I do like painting Snow miniatures, a simple grey undercoat, then highlight up to white. I still need to complete the armour and aircraft!






Cheers
