I like it !! Started thinking about "Full metal Jacket" as soon as I looked at the pictures. Some nice work there.

Yeah MAC, nice one!

I like the gate and the fence a lot the poses of the figures are nice, too. What I like less is the soil - a little too little variation there and it doesn't look "blended" with the rest of the dio. Anyhow, congratulations on a completed work, very nice subject - and have a nice day

Nice, Mac.I agree with Deafpanzer,We don't see alot of Nam dio's [ or Korea,for that matter ].I think some of the reason is that in doing a Vietnam Dio , It's probably gonna be based mostly around figures & speaking for myself, figures are at the top of my many weak skill area's.Your's look great,though. keith
