MW3: Delta


New Year, yet another kitbash.... how much longer can i continue???

Shooting the breeze with fellow kitbashers recently & some topic came up on how someone commented on the forum that 'any kitbash that's not contemporary = historical'.... etc.

I'm not one to horde & stock up accessories but a quick mental recap of whatever i have in inventory makes it painfully clear; my M4s with ACOGs, EOTECs & AN-PEQ4s have now been overtaken by MK18s, MK11s, HK416s with Specter scopes, PEQ15s etc. AORs & Gen2 BDUs are now the norm. MICH replaced by rail-mounted FAST Helmets etc etc. In short, i'm historical or rather my 1/6 stuff is.

So, determined to put out something 'modern', MW3's Delta squad became the obvious choice since i've recently completed the game. Here's one for 2012....
