The 716 M.P battalion gained quite a reputation during the Tet offensive in Saigon , in which they were in some fierce battles with the Vietcong . Lot`s of the web gear was black , so I have painted the pistol pouch , added scratch made night stick holder . Weathered and added strap to M.16 . Hope you like the more detailed pics of him here .

I’m really liking the look of the military policeman figure. Especially his head sculpt.

Another great figure from your collection, and more excellent custom crafting. I certainly cannot tell the difference between the scratch-build bits and the "store bought" bits, other than, the scratch-built bits might be a little bit better. Again, impressively crafted details.
