I don't think it would be too difficult to file them down to convert them into normal goggles as used by figures 2 and 3 of the shotgun troopers.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-66330341076866691492012-03-23T21:49:51.248+00:002012-03-23T21:49:51.248+00:00Great job on those, and on the others from previou...Great job on those, and on the others from previous post!

It was a real pain in ass to do. So many times I'd get part of the word done nicely and then cock up the rest of it, necessitating a repaint of the offending letter or letters. I certainly learnt the value of patience and a very steady hand when painting these. Oh, and a very fine tipped paintbrush!Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-80936487554656806452012-03-21T11:50:18.187+00:002012-03-21T11:50:18.187+00:00I like the Foundry SWAT Teams but I like the West ...I like the Foundry SWAT Teams but I like the West Wind SWAT Teams even more. They are much better value for money and are equipped with standard issue weapons. The Foundry figures are armed with some very dubious weapons and have far too many females amongst them. That said, if you can afford both sets I'd say, go for it.Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-26441447649459682272012-03-21T11:49:47.467+00:002012-03-21T11:49:47.467+00:00Great work again on lovely figures and your reason...Great work again on lovely figures and your reasons fro them being the best but us foundry whores are over here sitting on a fence, excellent stuff Bryan....The Angry Lurkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01227314379603418332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8423998700545338590.post-5996885615767576332012-03-21T11:49:40.712+00:002012-03-21T11:49:40.712+00:00Very glad to see this post.
