I don't know much about these soldiers, but he looks very good.  One can tell you took painstaking efforts in his creation.

yes Justin, I stopped a few times over 1 year  I think....trying to best make his hair...his vest...and his foot wear .....they fought their chinese and also japanese neighbours....both of whom I found easier to make than these Koreans but in the end...this Korean didnt seem so difficult afterall  ;) ...these wars was what made them (to the older generation) bitter enemies till even this day

Based on the pictures you supplied, your officer and soldier both look very authentic!  Well done, Cheng!

Yes, they look very Korean, but also very playmo...
Something I find can be difficult with the asian themes.

He is really great Cheng!
