Cracking stuff! Would love to see your basing process!

Really great paint job. Love the colours and the basing is incredible.

Bery nice detailed figures Gavin. Will look great in a mini diorama. Gr Frank

Lovely job Gavin with those marines . It remember my visit at the war museum of Hue few years ago . The rooms dedicated to the Battle of Hue were amazing and instructives !

Looking great keep up th good work your eclectic range of videos are always worth watch for inspiration to keep moving forward with the hobby to strive to do the best you can and learn from masters like yourself it's good for ones mental health keep it up marra

Hi Gav, that is a crazy size to paint, but you are a true master at this art, looking forward to the next video soon, bedt regards from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les

My father was in Hue for Tet 1st Bn, 1st Mar. Reg., 1st Mar. Div. I want to get some of the Empress Miniatures like this too.

Lovely painting on some lovely sculpts. The basing is quite simple, but really captures the 'feel' of the urban fighting in Hue city. I especially like the various and subtly different shades of olive drab/green you use on different parts of the kit, uniforms, flack jackets, webbing, bandoliers etc. Very realistic in this scale. Excellent! xx SF

Great work and thank you for the kind words. The research for these figures was watching lots of archive footage of the Battle. It’s always a collaboration between myself and Empress. It is Empress that will decide the period first.

Beautiful work Gav

Amazing as ever Gav, makes my 1/48 figures look pretty average! Well done marra.

Great work Marra, have a great weekend 👍

Cracking job Gav, they look excellent mate

Had an Uncle that did 2 tours in 66-67. A Marine. Not sure where he was or what he did. I do know he was "in country". They look excellent as always , Gav. Have a great weekend , marra.

Hey marra, it’s me, it’s me, finally made a sort of appearance, haha! Anyhow, awesome Gav, very cool buddy, as always 👍👍🤟🏻🤙🏻✌🏻

Lovely work as always Marra, I totally agree with your point of view on the tutorials. I do this hobby to de-stress 👍👍

well done Gav they look great nice work

Your inspired work on the bases highlights the already superb paint job Gav...Congrats!

I love these marra. I also collected that “Nam” magazine series in the 80s and yes mine were lost too, when I had to move to another state as part of my work. I enjoy your channel as is, it is a showcase of your work and I like seeing works by other people. 👍🏻👍🏻🙂

I've got similar figures made of a similar material coming up in the queue.Looking forward to see how you get on with these.

Have a great paint job.

Looks cool.

Nice video nice figures which hopefully will paint up well.🐵🐻😊👍

Looks like there is lots of detail to paint have fun

Nice figures Gav

Cool figures Marra ❤😊

"Jolies figurines et belles poses mon ami!"

I like the poses those figures are in. 😊

Not really into resin figs find them to small and brittle but I know your do a GREAT JOB GAV mate. 👍

Hi Gavin, those figures look great, will you be painting them soon? Best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les

Nice printed figures marra, 👍😎

Nice detail in those little 3D prints. Look forward to paint. I'll be watching

Could you list the paints you used for the flesh tones pleases Gav.?

Yaaaaa! (MORE 28mm VIET NAM!!!!) Interesting point about USMC 'corpsmen'/Medics... As many viewers will know, the United States Marine Corps are more closely allied to the United States Navy, as opposed to the US Army... But the USMC don't have a 'designated' 'Medical Section' in the way that the Army or even USAF do... INSTEAD, they (the USMC) sort of 'co-opt' their combat medics from the US Navy... During the US war in VietNam, especially at the time of the 'Draft' or conscription, many chaps elected to join the US Navy, thus MOSTLY avoiding active combat duty in the boonies or jungles of VietNam... (Though the USN had the Brown Water Navy and indeed the SEALS who both faced heavy combat...) If you THINK ABOUT IT, far safer, IF YOU ARE DRAFTED, to join the US NAVY so at least you won't be wandering about the jungle getting shot at!!!! SAFER STILL to volunteer as a 'Medic' so you'll be most likely working as a 'Ship's Medical Orderly' or even at a USN base hospital... UNLESS OF COURSE you are seconded to the USMC to be a combat medic!!! (Combat Medics/Corpsmen being in the very thick of the fighting and obliged to provide 'First Responder' medical aid to wounded Grunts often in the middle of a heavy firefight!!!!) These NAVY chaps, working alongside the USMC in some of the bloodiest battles of that war, were among the bravest of the brave. Often unarmed, (so they could carry more Medical Supplies) these guys literally ran towards the bullets, providing emergency medical 'first aid' to wounded Marines. Their prompt action saved countless lives, stabilising wounded men until evacuation or 'Dust Off' could be arranged. Over 20 of these men received the Congressional Medal Of Honour. Corpsmen also looked after the day-to-day medical needs of the Company in the field, treating Grunts with Malaria, various parasitic conditions, emmersion foot and other 'regular' medical complaints. Many were (eventually, due to experience), as qualified as a modern Junior Doctor in all but name...) xx SF

Flags are laid to make a patio😉

Neat work as usual Gav. 😍 Hope you’re feeling better.

They look Great Gavin!!!! Thanks for sharing

Nice update Gav some lovely figs 👍🏻

Masterly painted figures, Gav. Very nice to see the detailed paintwork, which it brings the figures to a great impression. Best wishes, Joachim

Great job on all , Gav. Brilliant work , marra.

Those french look good Gav,keep.up the awesome work

Very nice effort on these figures and some good advice regarding paint.

Hi Gav, those figures are absolutely outstanding, I assume you paint with the aid of some type of magnifying glass or what ever, I score 12 out of ten, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les

Nice work on the Perrys. I understand what you're feeling about the faces. Their Afrika Korps didn't really have the details to make the faces pop. Great work on the USMC stuff!

cool

hi Gav... you do phenomenal on you military figures ... & your horses look fantastic.. 👍🏻👍🏻..thx 4 sharing.. vinny

Looking good mara . You really should do some painting videos

Lovely looking figures GAV, keep up the good work. 👍

Again, those guys are so small, how the heck do you even see their faces? I'd like to see the size of the brushes you use. Amazing work Gav!! Very nice.

Great work Gav .
