The short answer is no. Mouse House do resin accessories (webbing, F88/9 etc) which can be added to Modern DML figs to achieve a modern Aussie Figure.

Well I would certainly buy some if Firestorm or Mouse house produced some. Anyone want to take up a petition?

Yes it is very close. Here is a teaser.
A hell of a lot more work has been done. I dont know when it will be finished, so dont go sending orders just yet.

Wow Jason, the quality looks awesome (as per usual).

Great idea having that fig holding a MAG too

I'm looking forward to these a lot. The Phase III conversion (when available) will also be handy to get the bits I don't want ot scratch on my '25'.

Cheers

Matt, I have toyed with the idea of a set for the Canadian Leo, but not at this stage.

Paul, cheers mate. I like I said there has been a lot more done to it since this photo was taken. Unfortunately when I was at John’s after the Battalion Show, the figure ended up on my thong and as Murphy’s Law dictates my fat foot landed on top of the figure.
I will keep you posted.
Cheers Jason

You wouldn't happen to have any modern (Iraq/Afganistan) Aussie SAS figures on the drawing board, would you?

Hey Jason
What is the medium you are using- Appears to be Aves Apoxie sculpt?
The pose is looking good even at this early stage mate

G'day Kym, Yep at some stage I will be doing a couple of Inf and SAS. I have the armature blocked out but thats about it at this stage.

Brad, yes it is Aves. Its nice to work with. At times I will add 50% green stuff to it for finer detail. Thanks for the comments.

Cheers Jason
