Some seriously nice work there. Wouldn't happen to have any other images of it? That's one to strive to I think!

Here is a photo that was taken after Baghdad fell. Everything is the same here except by this time crews were wearing IBA instead of the more common small flak vest.

Miloslav,

I have seen most of the pictures you posted here, and they are all unbelievably good. Dude, you got a gift. Most of us here are good, but your models look like theyre about to start shooting at us LOL This one is definitely one of the best Ive seen.

Gary

PS - it seems as if you finish a model every couple of days the way you post pictures here. How do you build them THIS good so fast????? I wish I had that much time LOL

Hey Miloslav

Great build. Looks really nice. Did you use any ref pics or something? I just wonder how you made thos smoke grenades in the launchers? Are they scratch or did they come with the kit? And for the antennas..... please tell me :-)
I would just change 1 thing and that is the wire on the back. There is a great thread on how you can make barbed ire very easy. That would look more realistic.
Just 1 more question the back packs with the covers did you made them yourself? How did you do that??

Cheers Roel
