Looks really good Alan. I really like the story on this one.

The two vehicles look good with the only real ovious fault to me being no chain and hook on the GMC winch.

Alan, great idea. Where did you get the 2 female figures from? They look a little shiny in the photographs. I like the poses of the troops jumping up to see the girls.

The girl fixing her shoe is from a company called Julius. She is resin. The one fixing her skirt is from Hornet. She's metal. Most of the GIs are from the old Tamiya Command Set. A few are modified from the Italeri Jeep and the Tamiya Gun and Mortar crew.
As for the gloss, I still have yet to dullcoat the whole thing

Very Nice. I think you pulled this one together very well. I really like the use of the female soldiers..(not something we see often), and i know once you get the dullcoat applied and the trim finished it will be awesome. Great Work..
