Some of my recent WW2 Airfix USMC conversions. I did these specifically to blend with the standard figures. The poses never made! Hope you like. If you want to see more www.paintedminiatures.weebly.com

That's some nice work. I always like to see the conversions and especially what a paint job will do to familiar figures.

Nice conversions! As a "customizer" I always like to see the work of others.

Hi

really impressed with your work using basic figures and making something special and unique out of them. Airfix figures are classics, but the standard poses are obviously limited.

Like the Brit inf converted into Paras on your showcase page - I presume that you used greenstuff putty to extend the smock effect below the waistline of the battledress.

Thanks for having a look at the showcase and for the comments Dave.

I very rarely use green stuff in my conversion work. Guess i'm a bit old fashioned, still use Miliput standard for the bulk of my work. I find green stuff good for very small parts. I've worked up some other airfix conversions, 8th Army and DAK. I will post some more on here.

All the best

Hi

I have some Milliput so will have a crack at a few of the Brit Paratrooper conversions - see how they turn out

AirFix convert easily with Matchbox.
More rifle shooters can be made with them.
