Edit new SEAls rest of the team added group shots

Post by scope uk » Wed Jun 07, 2006 12:57 pm

Well guys here are two more guys from my eight man SEAL team The 60 gunner is carrying the same design of backpack as one of the ones already shown but the RTO is issued with a new design. The RTO has some new glasses but am not too keen on the red ones so he will probably be reissued with a yellow pair soon.

Scope,

That LBV is tight! And the stitching as always is exemplary. Now the M4 Carbine with all the goodies! Wicked stuff. It looks like you had a lot of fun! The mount on the top foward rail... Is that a PVS-14? Nightvision Device?

I really like those packs, and am impressed by your stitching. It takes an extreme amount of effort for me just to sew a button back on a shirt, so that makes your work all the more impressive :wink:

Thanks guys am glad you like these two am rather proud of them myself
shadow83 the telephone wire is really easy to do find some really small wire and wrap it tightly around a pin take the pin out and you are left with the coils the good thing about it is that you can make it as long as you need.

blaster_e11 the M60 is a Marauder Inc one with Barrell and sights hollowed out, carry handle replaced, and bi-pod added.

MiG29K Glad you like the fig and the M4 i particularly like this one am trying to make all sorts of add ons for the M4s i got fed up of waiting for variants from BBI although i am still hoping!!

tmanthegreat Glad you like the packs and if you like them stay tuned as the other SEAL members will be carrying other designs.

Ja Thanks Mate i thought the Camo was an improvement you inspired me with the uniform you did for me and cant wait to see it in person so that i can study your technique :) As i have said to you i have weathered the first 2 and it covers the woodland camo a bit so it doesn't look as off you'll see what i mean when i get some group shots done.

Hey Scope Again mate Very impressed with these :D

Also I too love the mods to the weapons (sorry forgot to say that last night,was just about to goto bed).
Those sights are sweet,they custom made or taken from other weapons?

As for the woodland camo,as said it IS an improvement over the first & the secret I use for camo,is not to make the splodges too big,the black do in crow feet style "Y" with the occassional addition to them. Well you`ll see once you go & pick up the package that`s waiting for you ;)
If you need more assistance LMK :D I just enjoy doing camo`s.

As said though Scope,I really want to see the first two all weathered up :D

Really looking forward to seeing ALL the team :D

these pics looks awesome, i can't believe they're 1/18. They have such a realistic feel. the weathering is dead on specially for the weapons


oh imho you'd better drop the old bbi m14 :wink:

Thanks Blaster glad you like the pics and the weathering :) These guys will unfortunately have to keep the BBI M14 until we get a proper proportioned one with shaped handle from someone :( I know the new sniper has the M21 but would really like to see someone do a properly shaped M14. I have pictures of whole teams carrying M14's and just think they are so cool!

i actually made my own.take the small m14 assault rifle that came with one of the first weapons sets(close quarters i think and cut off the barrell,grip,clip and stock.then cut off the front end off of the m14 and attach.next cut the stock of the pump shotgun that came in the same set mentioned.just add the clip and paint and you should be good.the 3 i made came out good and match the rifle in dimensions almost perfectly.ill post a pic later.

Outstanding work :D
