Jack, they do not look like US-GIs to me. Whats up with the color of the pants?

I could be off on the colors. I used an osprey book on WWII U.S. Infantry in Europe. In thebooks color plates the early pattern pants appeared to be a brown drab and the jackets appeared an Earth tan. Some of the later uniforms appeared to have an olive green jacket with the same color pants. Some of the later uniforms also had olive green jackets and pants. As I said I could be a bit off. I guess put more effort into sculpting than painting.

Great work. You say you sculpted them yourself… I wish I was that talanted.

OD, Khaki, and Brown-colors look good to me. Nice work.

Thanks guys. I found a lot of variations in U.S. uniforms for this period. Some of these figures were painted to represent troops just landed in Europe and a few are painted to represent troops in 1945. Believe it or not I sculpted these for a model railroad manufacturer!

Very nice work.

Id say you got an army going on over there. NIce work. What did you use as base material?

The original figures were sculpted 3 to 1 size in a material called Castaline. It is a clay/wax hybrid material. after they were finished I made rubber molds and made hard copies in resin. These resin copies were then panagraphed(downsized to 1/48th scale).
