Here is the first Marine of the first fireteam of my 2nd squad. As the 1st and 3rd squads are finished as well as the HQ group of the squad and a forward artillery controller team this is the last subunit to complete my 3rd platoon.

Thumbs up on cranking your way through this project.

Nice but I think you need to tone down the helmet camo. One side was brown/tan earth tones and the other a few shades of green. Here are some good samples: link

I have a VN era FLAK jacket, Marine soft cover hat and field jacket I can send you pictures of to get the right color tones. I don't have a helmet cover. The VN era web gear, uniform, and helmet the Marines had were the same exact ones they had in WWII. Camo uniforms were rare.

I may have to start buying and painting some of these up.
