Operation Corporate

In my attempt to minimise my lead mountain ,I thought I would dig into the Historical side of the pile and decided on my 28mm Falklands project. I purchased a few packs of their MOFO range from Gripping Beast about 2 years ago,they do anice discount bundle which at the moment is 12 packs for less than the cost of ten packs with free postage . The two forces I chose were a Para recce platoon and a platoon of Argentine Marines , the figures are really wonderful ,poses are based on lots of the actual photos of the war and theres lots of period moustaches .They are a pleasure to paint and I will be ordering the extra figures I need to make up to full platoons .
Above the British Paras ,they are equipped with SLR's ,sterlings .m79, Brens and GMPG's depicted in amix of helmets and berets Below are the Argentine Marines armed with FN Fals with fixed and folding stocks ,M3 smg and FN Faps and FN Mags all of the figures have a great sense of period
