But they do march! Hey guys just found this forum, thought I would like to share with you my new project the North Vietnamese Army or for FOW Vietnam, when Edwin Starr wrote War, I don't think he realised that it is excellent for games.

First off I painted a little sampler to get me started in the mood, a T-54 a MG and a Infantry base, I feel painting a entire model like this helps me set my target and provides reference for my future painting.

I also have a lot of other projects all in one place on my blog, GW, FoW, Historicals

PAVN T-54 (K-2), DSHK and AK-47 squad.


Next up is two squads of PAVN Infantry these come from the Infantry Company (VPABX07).

It was incredibly fun to paint these actually I did them probably over the course of two nights, I am much more used to very complex heavily detailed models so something so simple was rather delightful, just basecoat and a wash, didn't even go for highlights, I am much more fussy with the 15mm Germans, one of the nice things about something your less personally invested in I suppose!

PAVN Infantry Company, AK47, B40 and 58 LMG teams.


You may have noticed the RPG teams are based in 3's not 4's like FOW recommends, this is simply for the sake of identification, when you are looking down on the table I was assuming that the sculpts would be hard to differentiate in the mixed platoons, 3 man per RPG really helps pick them out instantly.

They also blend in rather a bit too well with the basing, which is a bit of a no-no in miniature painting circles, and wasn't really my intention, that said it feels kind of appropriate for the North Vietnamese.
