In the order I placed this week I got 1 squad (8 figs) of New Anglican Confederation Gurkhas just to see how I got on with them. They are fantastic troops and I'm going to use them as a stand alone unit in my upcoming British force. I painted them based on a concept for the new F.I.S.T (Future Integrated Technology Soldier) program being developed by the British army. A concept for a FIST equiped infantryman of the future. For more info visit the website I took this image from http://www.army-technology.com/projects/fist/ . Here are some of the painted up Gurkhas. And lastly myBritish MBT (name to follow...) which I brought from Old Crow. Old Crow make some fantastic models, they aren't too far fetched and they are made of the best quality resin I think I've encountered in this hobby. My only complaint is that their vehicles are very big, this tank especially looks like it should be about the size of a modern day Scimitar tank but is infact quite large and maybe a litt...

Or should that be not so new. Spent a day with my cousin painting up some of the Ground Zero Games stargrunt figures we bought at Salute. That is Salute 05. Don't know why we never painted them sooner, just never got round to it i suppose. Bt their done now and I'm so pleased with the result that at the start of the week I ordered some more. And next week when the guys at GZG are back from their Hol's I'll probably place another. They are truly great figures and they look fantastic when painted up. The range of troops availible is great and they are so versatile and with their scale at True 25mm they can easily be mixed in with some of the larger 1/72 kits and troops on the market.
