All relevant and extensive information about the Hong Kong Police Force is available on their website
It is very comprehensive, the Hong Kong Police Force has a highly organised structure.
All Hong Kong Police Vehicles use the AM licence plate ie 2 digits and up to 4 numbers | Police vehicles have different colours, normal Police vehicles are white with red and blue stripes, the Police Traffic Division vehicles are white with yellow and blue checkerboard design.
Amazingly the Police Force have their own superstitions as well, the majority of the licence plates on Police Vehicles have lucky number combinations involving the numbers 6,8, and 9 !
Basically 6 means easy life, 8 means wealth and 9 means long life - this is very much Hong Kong Culture.
The Police also use unmarked vehicles extensively which are NOT identified by the AM mark.
The Police Museum is also worth a visit, see details on the website listed above.

Former Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway bridge over the River Esk used by the 3ft gauge line, Gill Force. Saturday 31 May 2014
In 1880 a branch off the Ravenglass & Eskdale railway from near Beckfoot to Gill Force iron ore mine was opened. In 1913 the iron ore mines were not producing anywhere near an economical volume for the 3ft gauge railway to survive and it closed.
Between 1915 and 1917 the R&ER line to Boot was converted from the 3ft gauge to 15ins and it reopened in various stages. However the long climb around the back of the miners’ cottages at Dalegarth to Boot station proved too much for the small locomotives and in the autumn of 1918 the service was cut back to Beckfoot. In 1922 the line was extended again along a short section of the former branch to Gill Force mine with a new terminus in front of the Dalegarth cottages, in 1926 it was extended to the present terminus adjacent to the north side of the valley road, the line south of the road was never reopened.

After painting a few figs and not liking the result I decided to blow money on some quality paint this time using "Games Workshop" paints.
Colors used:
Bestial Brown, Chaos Black, Camo Green, Blazing Orange, Boltgun Metal, and Golden Yellow.
I had filed down the joints on this fig to make him posable, but with the several layers of yellow, only his shoulders move without ruining his paint job...Yellow is such a bitch to paint over dark colors.
This Beachhead is painted based on the colors from the actual Tiger Force figs released in 1988. Its more specificaly based on Sky-Strikers colors. The term "Variant" is from the fact that when I first painted him he had a green vest, but I went more traditional with the black and red. I do like the green I just like this one better :)
