Greetings all, I've been building the forces for a company level 6mm Vietnam game, as well as documenting the game design process, so I thought I'd share some of the miniature photos here.

I initially posted the development blog here, but it was removed as the admin thought it was advertising (!?)
The entire devblog is available here, for those of you interested:

Might be better to comment there if you have any game design related questions or suggestions, as TMP doesn't support email notifications when new posts are made (as far as I'm aware).

All these miniatures are 6mm scale, vehicles from Heroics & Ros, Infantry from GHQ
Hueys:

First Us infantry off the production line:

VC infantry:


Cobras and medevac UH-1:
