Excellent. Love the flag : )

The flag is brilliant. Is that an addition by you? Cannot imagine too many marines would sport that these days, alas. An iconic design, but not universally acceptable I fear. Great painting on both figures. Nice stencils on the ammo box. I must try that too!

The raised arm with the ammo belt is nice work. Is that a two piece casting? Very, very, clever and great animation.

The 'flag' is on the figure but it was designed as a towel but painted as a flag is a great idea.

The ammo guy is a one piece casting. Paul is simply the best historic sculptor out there in our opinion. But then as we have been working with him for a very long time he is one of our team so we would think him superior ; )

As promised some better photos

And answers above from the horses mouth. I have to say the ammo bearer figure has become one of my all time favourites. It is a genius pose and a delight to paint. I can't wait to combine him with the gunner.
