Aside from doing a bit of work on the UltraModern Armoury. I also managed to paint up some WW2 infantry this month.

First up were seven USMC, the Ceramcoat Sea Green airbrushed on as a color base very nicely, and was able to be touched up by brush.

Weapons are Gunmetal and Mahogany Brown; base is Iraqi Sand.

It's ahistorical, but I don't care... so much of the hobby is ahistorical... I'm changing this one.
