Little Armory UMP9

This is the second UMP kit after the previously reviewed UMP45. This UMP9 kit is also a collab with Dolls Frontline and the only difference with the UMP45 is the curved magazine. I didn’t feel like doing anything unique for this build, so I just repeated what I did with the UMP45.
Final word:
Since this is a similar kit with the UMP45 (except the magazine), I have nothing extra to add regarding this UMP9 kit. Sorry for the lazy writing, but there really isn’t anything to else to say.
Little Armory M16A1

After releasing loads of M4 carbine variants, we finally have the ancestor to all of them: the Little Armory M16A1 kit. I recently reviewed the M16A4, but that doesn’t feel like the iconic weapon I’m used to seeing in movies & TV series. I think the tapered handguard covering the barrel is what makes it ‘the’ M16.
This kit is very basic; there’s no rail system to attach various accessories. All you get is a spare magazine. It’s all black plastic, so I painted it with German Gray, Little Armory Alumite Black, and Burnt Iron. I added some decorative text on the stock and some weathering on the carrying handle.
Final word:
There’s not much to be said about this kit, it’s about as basic as you can get. Given how simple it is, I would’ve liked a pair of them in a single box like the AKM kit. The only extra you get (like in all Dolls Frontline collab kits) is a postcard with the boxart illustration. But for me, it’s nice to finally have a M16 in my collection.
Little Armory M4A1

You’d think I would’ve gotten tired of Little Armory M4A1 kits already, but here I am back with another one. This kit is part of the Dolls Frontline lineup, and comes in tan and black colored plastic.
After giving a camo paintjob to the M4A1 2.0, I decided to give this one a more weathered look. I sprayed all parts with Mecha Surfacer Light, then applied a layer of Silicone Barrier using a paint brush. After spraying it with Gaianotes Yellow Gray, I gave it a few scratches to reveal the light grey color (Mecha Surfacer Light) underneath. The suppressor was painted with German Gray.
Final word:
There’s some differences between this kit and the previously reviewed M4A1 2.0 kit. The most obvious one is the suppressor. The sights, magazine and foregrip (not pictured) are different as well. I may have acquired the laser module from a different kit, but I don’t remember it at this point. Anyway, this kit offers a nice variation to the already crowded M4A1 Little Armory lineup.
