NSA's customs - The Early Days

[NSA]

Found my old photobucket account.. posting these for the historical records

My first attempt at a "Ranger" custom force.

Painting was clearly not really a thought at this point.

My Cobra "Heavy Weapons Team"

Desert "Ranger" force w/ Dio stuff..

Some Chap-Me thing I tried to paint.

Setup in the garage..

Ah memories:

And just because, this happened:

I really like the rangers!

 

[NSA]

Thanks lol.. looking back the ideas were all there, but the follow through was terrible.

Those pouches on the vests.. YIKES! I hadn't really figured out how to paint figures yet so I was just kit bashing.. we all gotta learn somewhere I guess!

That Cobra fireteam is royally fucked if they make contact with, well, anything other than a group of African rapscallions.

 

[NSA]

They all have... knives and grenades!

They'd fair ok against armor and air assets.. assuming they were hiding in the water, or some other light blue backdrop.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

Post them at the tank..."WOW!!!!!"s and "AWESOME!!"s everywhere

Compared to your new stuff, these are comical...

 

[K-Tiger]

They'd be good there, but kind of open against against infantry.

They really need a vehicle. And new uniforms.

They really need a vehicle. And new uniforms.

That sounds like a pretty typical request from your average COBRA soldier

The blueshirts never got their own vehicles.. and never got better uniforms. They need a Union!
