15mm North Koreans and US infantry

I recently finished my Korean war summer troops and have posted couple pictures to show off. The North Koreans are Eureka miniatures with a mix of Viet Minh to portray the North Korean infantry in helmets which despite what some sources say and various plastic figure makers sell the North Koreans used several types of helmets (Russian pattern 1940,old German style helmets captured from the Nationalists, Japanese helmets and even US helmets captured from ROK and US forces in their retreat from Seoul. The North Korean basic uniform was similar in color as the US and ROK issued uniforms but as the dyes varied in quality they faded to a yellowish color after field use. I depicted several shades of uniform to represent those new recruits,captures and older uniforms the North Korean wore. Ill post my Chosin Collection and aircraft later and some winter rice patties soon.
