Far East Project - part four

Here is my final post for a while for this project.

Once again, these are all Peter Pig 15mm figures, mainly from the 8th Army range, apart from the radio operator with the FOO (on the left) and the sniper on the right. Those two are both later war figures, but in neither case does it really matter. They look fine as they have been painted and based. The Vickers MMG team is all standard troops.

These will all be support options for the basic platoon force. The sniper was wrapped in a small piece of butter muslin soaked in PVA glue before undercoating. You can just about see that he is wearing a cap comforter.

For this earlier period, I still have a couple of Universal Carriers to do, together with crews, which will also have dismounted figures. One will be a standard Bren carrier and the other will have a 2" mortar. 

I also have the figures for a later war platoon and supports dressed in the JG uniform which began to be introduced in 1943 and more widely adopted the year after. I am planning to paint these troops as Gurkha Rifles with a British officer. I haven't even based these up yet, so they will have to wait for a while.
