Hi Kurt,
Thanks for your support and input during the build. It would be nice to see a few more jungle figures on the market, plus a pack mule or two.
Cheers

Hi Romain,
I'm glad you approve. It makes a nice addition to my Aussie collection and a nice contrast to Anzac Cove.
Cheers

Hi Jerry,
Yes, a different experience from the mud

Thanks for all your input and support.
This guy was originally intended to be the 5th figure but he was too dressed down for the scene. Plans change as always
Cheers
