Those look pretty good.  The one in shorts has some knobby knees huh? Wink [;)]  Nice detail

Manny,

What paint do you use for your figures?  All nicely done and figure painting is something that I can't do even if my life depends on it.

All pretty nice, the only issue is that the Italian-style camo pants worn by the last figure are quite a different pattern...

For every modeling technique that works, I have three that don't.

All really nice, Manny--you've really got a knack for painting those uniforms, and I really appreciate that you take the time to do your research on them.

I have to say that I think that the assault gunner needs some eyes, IMO. I can't see any at all; it looks a little unfinished. And the last guy--does he have eyes? I can't tell..

Thanks, guys---the yes on the 2nd and 3rd are more "understated" than many of my other figs...I tried to depict more of a "squinting" look on these two...the Italian camo pants are a little off in terms of realism I must agree...Paints used are Humbrol and oils...
