Hunting through the 20mm pile of Nam shame

These are a pile if cool miniatures that i have collected over the years at shows like salute and colours.

the pile includes US, NVA, and VC as well as civilians.

most are from brittania miniatures from a company called grubby tanks.

they have a huge range of 20mm bits and bobs

i plan on stripping in dettol and rebasing the little dudes on smaller 20mm bases to reduce the space they take up as my storage space is limited.

the models that are painted are very dark i have found recently with some 15mm flames of war models  that i prefer painting smaller scales with brighter colours as i find they show up better on the table.

i think im mainly going to paint them with GW contrasts as the block colours then highlight from there.

There are also some M113s and a sheriden to paint up. There are also some M113s and a sheriden to paint up.

There is quite a bit to be getting on with here. Its going to take a few days in the dettol to strip the paint off the figures amd i have to wait about a week for the bases to arrive, but i do have enough bases and unpainted miniatures to start on a US rifle squad and command team.
