Most Impressive!
Those decals and the overall paint scheme give them sort of a French army circa 1939-40 look.
As a general comment....if you weren't so hooked on speed painting to the strains of Ride of the Valkyrie...just think what you could achieve (*)
I know it stirs the blood..but for heaven sakes... slow down man!!!!

THanks Boyz !! You are correct, it is based on an early French/Belgium '39 -'40 color scheme. As I said before, I studied that campaign throughly. ?And the French used the "card symbols" on their AFVs. The DKoK troopers remind me of the WWI, early WWII French/Belgium and "Boche" armies. ?Tas I got those at www.I-94Enterprises.com (they have 3 pages of small scale decals !). I'll send you the site. ?MJ, the "Bar Codes" can be "Kill Marks" or as you suggest ! ?As the Ferengi say, FRoA #35 War is good for business. Once again Wombat is correct ! ?The "Valkyrie song" as some of the troops calls it, holds a special place in my "Heart"(?!). My Bn Cdr in the 101 when we were deployed to C/America, had the UH-60 crews mount speakers on some of their Blackhawks. Very "Apocalypse Now" as we Air Assaulted into the jungles ! ? Great PsyOps ! ?The models, both redram's and Reaver's reflect the larger scale versions perfectly. And in turn, have a very '39-'40 look and feel.
