Op Telic circa 2006 - On patrol in Iraq

Hi All,

My reworked Taowan WMIK. For me the old ATU wing boxes are much more “Landie” than the modern Bowman bases. I’ve therefore maybe stretched my "artistic licence" a little to get some earlier WMIK features such as the Clansman ATU wing boxes with a crew in Osprey for which I apologise. Based on the dates Osprey and Bowman were introduced (and they way older gear takes a while to phase out) maybe, just maybe……………….

Anyway here it is now fully crewed. Hope you enjoy.

For those that want to know how it went together (and haven’t seen it elsewhere) there is full build thread here. There are also a few more crew close-ups.

Best regards

Dave

That is fantastic! I can see a lot of work went into this... I truly wish I had the space and skill for something like that. I'm jealous.

Re: Op Telic circa 2006 - On patrol in Iraq

Seeing it all together in final build is just awesome.

I don't think anyone has the nerve to fault historical inaccuracies.

Well done Dave.

Re: Op Telic circa 2006 - On patrol in Iraq

often when you see a fantastic build, the figures for these vehicles are often negleted and kinda look sucky! but you did an awesome job with the whole build and the figures are stunning as well!

Simply AMAZING JOB!! People perhaps don't realize at first sight the enormous amount of work and talent that you "invested" on this project.
