Tyre (tire) tread soles? If so, clever touch! |
jammy four | 28 Aug 2020 7:23 a.m. PST |
Liam sort of…these were the bumper style boots worn in conjunction with the Ho Chui Min sandles yet again some of the Tyre soles had this thread so you takes yr choice!!. by all accounts they lasted a while…! cheers Ged gringo40s.com gringo40s.blogspot.com |

We are seeing lost of these VC right now. Here is what is intended as a tree mounted VC sniper;

I see it was August 2019 we first saw this figure. Seems a VERY long time ago now. Happy Days…. Well here he is painted up once more;

More nice painting. Shoulder markings place him in Hue 68
|
jammy four | 22 Oct 2020 2:32 a.m. PST |
thanks for posting Liam the shoulder markings were in effect a "badge" of recognition and in this case were made from torn white cloth or even paper,whatever was to hand! cheers Ged gringo40s.com |

Two more of "the gentler sex" for the VC due shortly;
|
Legion 4 | 24 Nov 2020 8:13 a.m. PST |
If she's packing she ain't gentler … she's a target … |
deadhead | 24 Nov 2020 8:50 a.m. PST |
I suspect she would be none too gentle to village chiefs or ARVN captives, let alone wounded "grunts". Even more of them it seems in the expanded range;

Those VC keep coming (just like the real thing in the wire). This latest Gringo40s figure in 28mm is a VC fighter in the act of throwing a ChiCom grenade…armed with a Moisin Nagant rifle/ Ged tells me not all these grenades went off,,,and the explosive charge was lower than the US ones. I am sure I will soon have a front view to show you;
|
deadhead | 10 Dec 2020 6:39 a.m. PST |
Well one more towards 400 on this topic! This is nice painting. esp the oriental facial features. |
deadhead | 10 Dec 2020 10:17 a.m. PST |
Mind you, it does help you appreciate it if I actually post an image;
Ah well, one closer to 400! |
jammy four | 10 Dec 2020 3:48 p.m. PST |

deadhead | 15 Dec 2020 2:32 a.m. PST |
and again. Almost at that 400 figure and second anniversary;
|

I suspect we will soon see this lass face on and be better able to judge her. White cotton top for change
