Didn't see the completed dio, yet.

LOOKS GREAT! Thumbs Up [tup]

Regarding digi camos of all kind I was thinking to make decal sheets in the right scale to put onto the figures, just like VP did have the camo sheets for the Waffen-SS overcoats.

Sorry, had to save bandwidth on Photobucket. They are the figs that went into my M2A2 OIF "On Patrol" dio. Check here to see it: http://photobucket.com/albums/v231/HeavyArty/OIF%20Dio%20%20%20%20%20On%20Patrol/

Looking good HeavyArty! I really like how the Camelback came out.

Since you have such a good hand why don't you try shading and highlighting the figures' uniforms. I'd give them more depth. My 2 cents [2c]

I think I've bumped into those guys in my travels...wait, those are 1/35 figures!?!?

Seriously, those are some excellent figures, HeavyArty. Now you'll have to try your hand at some OIF/OEF Marines in digi camo!

A day in the Corps is like a day on the farm; every meal is a banquet, every paycheck a fortune, every formation a parade... The Marine Corps is a department of the Navy? Yeah...The Men's Department.
