Hi boys.....This little fellow came along with the M34 kit from Revell of Germany. Since this model was not used for the time of the rest of the dio previously shpwn, decided to modified it a little, a MG  mount for the 50 cal, mount for an antena but no radio carried, a few boxes and it´s ready.

Then I came out with the backstory, I guess for the uniforms of the soldiers and armament of the soldiers could be part of a what if chilean contingent in the Korean War. Since I don´t know pretty much of that particular war, maybe somebody could help me writing some, and if you want to put some aircraft on the story, pleased feel free to do it hehe :lol:  :lol:






A vignette will come in time, more pics later
cheers :cheers:

Ya know, when you mention it, they do kinda lok drunk. It looks like the drunk guy driving brake-checked, causing the passenger to pass out after meeting the dashboard, and the guy in the back pole-dancing with the .50 is still trying to catch his balance. I say that like I've done it before....... :D

Ok, here I added some decals taken from the original decal sheet, and write some story







After the counter offensive of the chinese, the UN became needed from more international commitement to avoid the loss of South korea to the communist forces. Since then, South American countries responded, and an international corp was formed with the following forces:

- Argentina: 2 Infantry Brigades, 1 Armor Brigade
- Brasil: 1 Infantry Divisions, 1 Armored Brigade, 2 Air Wings
- Chile: 2 Infantry Regiments, 1 Armor Batallion, 1 Artillery Group.
- Colombia: 1 Infantry Regiments, 1 Scout Company.

The Latin forces were grouped in the 200th Corp, and saw few combat action previous to the cease fire, since the chinese counteroffensive was stopped when the new forces were assembling in Pusan.

Most of the weapons were supplied by USA, and the vehicles were mainly WWII vintage , like the jeep depicted above. The vehicle represents a chilean Wyllis, after the cease fire patroling UN buildings in Seoul. Belong to the 1st Infantry Regiment "Buin".

Vignette will be finished soon....
