It's fast coming up to that Salute time of year again. As such I thought I ought to paint up all of the models I had lying around from last year before I go out buying more. So Here they are my collection of H&R, GHQ and Irregular Minis Micro armor moderns. 


Here some GHQ insurgents plus an Irregular technical cab defend a small compound in the face of coalition forces.


Here's a closeup of the American M1A1s & M113s advancing supported by British infantry.


Here in the town the Insurgents use their captured artillery to shell the coalitions advancing forces.


The view of the town(currently unfinished).


A closeup of the gums and supporting troops.
