    Hi Guys

    This is a good looking 1st release from Mookies and it's great to see another company .

    The artwork was done by a member on the Military Modelling website called PETER DAY

    ........certainly made a good job of that camo in my opinion , I like the painting style as well

    I will be doing an in depth review of this piece once Richard has it all ready ...looking forward to that .

    Thanks for sharing

    Nap

    PS ..I believe there could be an option of a full figure ie a set of legs being considered as well

    A superb representation of an SBS Falklands War soldier, I have seen this close up and I must say the sculpting is top notch from Maurice Corry in a generous 1/9 scale & it is very well casted by Tommi, really looks the business (y)

    Hi Sgt Red.
    Thanking you for your interest in our lil ol figures.Im certainly planning more Falklands subjects.The pilot bust would be a great idea and one for us to consider for sure.Its an area of interest that greatly interests me.Vietnam era also is of great interest but i wouldnt want to cover subjects done already.
    All the best from Richard

    A very nice item indeed, looks good and the box art is a fantastic paint job, its screaming out for some cam cream in the face. Nice work!

    Hi Guys

    Been looking at this again and after the review I will do which I will do in my honest and constructive way ..........

    I am "tempted" to add those chest pouches ......less camo to do ......lol......not that mine will be as effective as Peters !

    Richard and Heken have both put their heart and soul into this and it's been a pleasure to help in a small way ...Mookies so deserves to succeed .

    Look forward to the next ..no doubt it will be as interesting
