SEAL operator with pakol hat and shemagh / A-STAN project


Revell, Caesar and G. Stuff.

I'm quite pleased with this guy, especially for the sunglasses.
Patience is, once again, the key...

Thanks for looking.

CIA "big" Jim...


The first idea :
A generic operator (French, Brit or American...) for bodyguarding / patrolling.

Step 1 :
Conversion : mix of Airfix, Revell and Caesar.
Green Stuff and a diet to do...

Thanks for looking
and welcome to the board, Acme !

UPDATE : I changed the title of the post because looking at the statistics of the blog, I noticed that people were throwing research with "big butt" (former title: CIA "big butt" Jim ...) and I found that nasty on one hand and unfair to these poor guys came for something they have not found ... hahaha.

Sorry, guys, but this little week was very helpful to take fresh air and clear our minds...

I want to go back !!!
To the next year, my faithful trees !

The wonderful sound of the door bell...




A little drrringgg-drrrringg at my door and...
youhou !
A nice and well-packed cardboard box from England.

What's inside ?
• Caesar Dismounted crusaders
• Caesar European medieval knights (13rd century)
• Caesar Counter-terrorist elite forces
• Plastic Soldier Late war british infantry. (expensive but first class...)


Like I said in other forums, i'm not fond of the counter-terrorist set from Caesar but they'll be useful to conversions. (the open helmet for my GIGN operators...)

I'm a very pleased customer from Modelhobbies for the second time. Great service !

Ps : Maybe, i 'll make a little personal review of the counter-terrorist set later...
