Wow! Neat conversions.
especially like the tank riders, coffee drinkers and standing bazooka guy. Excellent work as usual. Where is the .30cal MG from?

re: the .30 cal M1919A6 isn't available at this time, so I built one. The 'A6 is basically the tripod or vehicle mounted M1919A4 with the addition of a metal buttstock and bipod. so that's what I did. The buttstock was shaped from a piece of styrene and the bipos came from an Airfix Multipose Bren gun. I didn't put on the flash hider as some of the WW2 photos don't always show one in place. The ammo belt around the gunner's neck is a white metal piece from Andrea miniatures.

Nice work Gary. I haven't got around to slicing any of TSSD's finest yet, as I've been seeing how many variations I can get from the Conte Brit Paras and SS, but I think I'll have to start very soon.

Gary nice conversions, I have not diced or sliced any troops for awhile. Been to busy building real life projects. It's good to see others work, it keeps the conversion juices flowing, Great Work, Mike.:)
 
Wow Great figures. I have admired your work on this site and other websites. It has inspired me to try my own conversions of Conte G.I.'s. On the guy with the A6 30cal., where did you get the 30cal. mg.? I look forward to seeing more of your conversion figures. Do you sell some of the figures you make?
Take Care
