Damn, if I had the money, I'd just put those on my book shelf. Look great in the pics.

I don't mean to brag, but the photos actually don't get across the paintjobs very well. Everything has been carefully highlighted, so they actually look much better in the flesh (or metal, whatever  ).

Err, they been painted about 4 or 5 years a go, so I'm not completely sure. The green uniforms at least, were probably done with a base of GW Catachan Green, highlighted with VMC Russian Uniform Green. The lighter green uniforms? Perhaps VMC Green Brown highlighted with Khaki? The Yellow is most likely Desert Yellow or Yellow Ochre highlighted with Dark Sand. Hope this helps. Sorry you won't take them off my hands.
