          Well as the uniforms are so similar these days, why not just use the US figures and paint them up as Brits..

          The figures in the picture Patrick linked to are German by the way... ;-)

          What did you find to stick the HK together with by the way?

              That's a good point Ian I suppose the only way to really tell would be weapons and I know you can get weapon accessories

              I used poly cement from humbrol , you know the thing it said was no good it does not work ! I tried it out on the base that comes with the kit because I won't use that in the dio it stuck a treat and dried faster as well.

                  Sorry Alan, I thought that was the actual website link, not just the picture. As Ian rightly points out, they are German, but who's to know one lot of Special Forces from another?

                          ....how would you like the british figures, what scheme? What makes them stand out, is they are wearing NBC (noddy) suits...

                              Thanks for that lee it's nice of you to offer but on looking at everything online in 1/35 I just can't find the right look for the troops and the only thing that comes close is the the 1/48 scale so I'm going to stay with that

                              Thanks to everyone who took the time to do searches for me I very much appreciate all your efforts

                              Here's a pic of the HK in chrome silver I can't get a decent coat with a brush but the weathering will sort that out [ATTACH]81081.IPB[/ATTACH]
