Great painting, Sir!

But if those are 80s US troops the weapons are way off. The longs guns are way too short; every rifleman and grenadier looks like they have an M-4, when everyone should have an M-16A2. Even the SAW barrels look like the newer (post 2000) short barrels.

Again, the painting is great, just the sculpting of the weapons is not right.

V/R,
Jack

Yea, I agree. They look like CAR-15s, as far as I can tell, but the pics are a bit dark.

Great painting, but I agree with Just Jack about the weapons. Also I'm not sure I have ever seen anyone sculpt in 15mm the US PASGT helmet that looks right to me. Peter Pig comes the closest in my mind.

Well if everyone is going to pile on then I might as well. The Dragon looks more like a Javelin.
