Hi all. I do apologise, I haven't posted anything for ages. So long in fact that my subscription had expired!
I picked this up the other day; a modern British mortar team in 28mm from Empress Miniatures. It's made for wargaming but I thought I'd put it together as a little vignette. It's a very decent rendition of the L16 and realistic poses for the crew as well. There is a third figure, but he's looking through binos so I binned him. Also for some reason the bombs and greenies aren't supplied with this set so I had to buy the BAOR mortar team as well.
The barrel brush and greenie lid are made from plastic tubing and a bit of wire. The muzzle cover and bipod retaining strap were added from plastic tubing and wine bottle foil.
