US Marines in the Pacific

These little guys got to the quarter final of the Steve Dean painting competition before getting beaten, and I put together this painting guide a little while back for anyone that's interested. Looking back at them now, I would have added some more colour to the piece, the sage green and ash greys do make for a 'dull' paint job. I had intended to add small empty cartridge cases and a discarded radio but ran out of time at the er, time. When I placed the all elements on the base there wasn't enough room for a scratch built radio, but I could have added the shell cases to give some extra colour.
Nice little figures from The Assault Group, I think they have lots of character, although there was some detail loss/ casting imperfection around the legs of the guy on his knees. Click the image to open it in a larger frame.

I love the info sheets you do. You should see if The Assault Group would be interested in this one, nothing ventured nothing gained. You never know, even if it only leads to some sample figures.
All the best

Maybe as you say some shell casing would've tipped the balance. An extra piece of detail and some nice contrast can do wonders
