I wouldn't dare to suggest the US Marine project is complete (as if any project is ever truly complete in this hobby!) but there's enough here that I'm ready to put it all into a blog post. Very happy with progress so far. Lots more about it here US Marines project

Those figures and vehicles look great! What brand are the figures?

WW -- reading the linked article would have revealed "… the initial batch of figures to make up the platoon came from the Eureka Miniatures range sculpted by Mike Broadbent. "

That's a great shade of green for the fatigues.

The figures are amazing, but it is the AFVs you ave assembled that I cannot resist. Great work

I hadn't realized how big the LVTs were, much larger than the Sherman tank!

WOW! Don't know where to start, the color of the utilities,
your overall paint jobs especially the helmet covers, your basing, the incredible AFVs, and platoon and squad options
with varying numbers of BARs to game every period of the
war. And your fantastic amount of research and treating us
to photos of actual weapons and vehicles. Had an uncle
who was a rifleman in the 1st Mar Div. Guadalcanal,Cape
Gloucester and Peleliu. He would have been proud to see
your project.
From an old Marine,
Semper Fi and job well done

As already pointed out, they are from the Eureka Miniatures 20mm range.
