Here is my first Marine Corps Recon unit in all its glory:
It was a joy to paint these and I must say the camouflage uniform was easier to do then I thought. Well done Paul Hicks and Empress ! Wonderful figures.
Here is another Recon Marine in a kneeling pose. was a lot of fun to paint.
Here is the radio operator of the Marine Recon unit.
Here is the next Marine of my growing recon squad. Another Empress Miniature figure.
The combat medic of the Recon squad.
I know there wouldn’t be a red cross emblem on the medics bag but for recognition purposes on the gaming board I thought it might be nice.
Another member of the USMC Recon squad by Empress miniatures. Armed with an M14 if I am not mistaken.
A few month back Empress miniatures released a 6 figure USMC Recon pack. I just started painting these. I thought it might be difficult to paint the camouflage uniform, but i think i found a way to paint it quite easily and quickly. It took me about 1 hour to finish this miniature.
The Marine is armed with an M16 and a sawn of shotgun.
I painted the uniform like I do all my marines. You can see the stages here.
After that I used Vallejo sky grey again to ad the camp stripes:
Then I added dark brown ( Snakebite leather ) and bright green ( Warp lightning) on the sky grey patches.
The rest was done as in above mentioned link described. Now just the the missing 5 figures to do.
