tiking Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 (edited) ...portrays a Libyan mechanic working on the rocket launcher. The second mechanic is working on the moped. Please go easy on me as this is my first major work with figures. As you all know, I have been shy about painting figures due to my inexperience. So here are the pics.

Tom Geiger Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I think your truck, figures and assorted junk all look just dandy! Very nice work! The alarming thing is seeing that truck in a suburban neighborhood! Is that thing aimed at your house? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiking Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 Ok. I finally added another figure, this time from MENG civilian kit. It is a boy. Again, go easy on the paint job. ButI think I did an OK job for my third figure. I also added more bike parts and Misc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiking Posted June 3, 2013 Author Share Posted June 3, 2013 Thanks a million Tom. The only thing i am unsure of, if the vegatation is a bit much. I mean libya cannot be completely desolated without any vegatation or am i wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
