The vehicle, the poses & interactions of the figures, to the mascot on the machine gun,, all of it blends beautifully. Simply outstanding work & attention to detail!!

Superb work!
The Academy kit,I think is still the best around.
The figures are perfect and well done.Don't know the company,but will have to check it out.
Great idea.Never seen the Vietnamese on a M113.
Would be excellent in a dio or vignette.

As the others of said, it's a terrific scene. There's always something compelling about a group of figures clustered together, especially when they are as well done as these. And it's so refreshing to see something other than German!

Not to knock the modelling skills, which are excellent, but the title might be a misnomer as Communist Vietnam discouraged and imprisoned practicioners of Bhuddism.

Again, as with your other build, it's great to see "the other side" of the VN war. Well-done and a good subject.
