No skill involved here, just time. Sadly the grey I've added to a couple of the figures is a touch to dark to match the original. May add some grey detailing to pouches etc. Still, I like this little group.

These guys look marvelous, I think there is more authenticity with 'body swapping' so the simpler customs can be just as impressive
Your group shot looks as though it needs the slogan .... "Dont mess with the SAS" !!

Thanks Andy. My main hope is that all my customs look authentic and add to my Action Force army!
I was toying with 'Don't mess with the SAS' and was also thinking of sticking this custom poster up behind the group, borrowing some lovely artwork I found on a Google image search.

The simple approach is definetley very effective with these. Well done! Really have the authentic feel to them. With any figure now I try to limit the painting to as little as possible as I can't stand to see my son taunted with look but don't touch.

Who gives a f*** if it is an easy custom or not? This is spot on! Really cool to see...

Simple but very effective
They look just like Palitoy production figures, more than one off customs, nicely done.
