They look great,did you modify the figures,I have not seen figures like those.

Great job also on the pick up,the only kit I have seen is the Meng kit with the AA gun

 

Tiking: dittos on the nice job. i have most of the Meng pickups on the shelf with the modern French armored cars for Africa dios. the pickup with the twin 14.5 is in the prime queue though the gun is done. probably paint the truck a yellow gold because i can.

As far as I know there aren't readily available kits of these technicals.   So you nailed that for sure and the action and figure work look great.  You, sir are a master!

 

 

Thank you kindly Keavdog. Glad you approve.

Looks good overall.  Good job.

...the only kit I have seen is the Meng kit with the AA gun

Meng makes three different versions of technicals on two different truck chassis; one on a Toyota Hilux, and two on a Toyota Land Cruiser.

They also offer the Hilux as a Spec Ops vehicle with figure and gear.

Lastly, they offer both trucks in a combo set w/out figures nor weapons, but with new, beefier tires on the Hilux.

This was from a previous diorama that I had dis-mantled. I decided to just make it as a stand-alone model. I re-did the pickup and figures to improve the look of it. I am not a figure building expert but the look of them, looks much better than my previous ones. I am getting there slowly but say with confidence, I am improving...at least, that's what I keep saying to myself.
