Yes, we're almost done, this is the next-to-last of the mysterious U.S. Specialists figures.

Artillerymen

Back in Episode 11, we recognized a figure from Platoon 20 V-US17 20mm US Army Artillerymen. Well, it turns out that this figure is also an artilleryman, and it is common to several Platoon 20 packs.

These four figures (all identical) were painted for TMP by our friends in Sri Lanka, Fernando Enterprises, using their own references.

I then based the painted figures on steel discs, contoured them with spackle, added flock, and sealed everything with a spray of matte clear.

The steel bases work well in my magnet-lined storage boxes. I add a sticker on the bottom with the figure's identity and manufacturer.

One More to Go!
