Hi Guys.
Happy New Year again !

Couple of pics below of the start of this project.
Some (all) of the figures may require modifying....(I've just noticed one has modified itself...Something's fallen off  Grin Grin)....and there are already some parts I'm not convinced of  myself.
I can't answer questions on what will be going in the range for certain yet, so I'm sort of 'doing my own thing' at the moment....(Que comment from Lemmy or Nik  Wink ) and getting things under way.

Hope you like them...Comments always welcome

Coming along nicely. The rifle of the central figure, top row, looks a bit high on the shoulder. And the arms on the heavy machine-gunner could probably do with beefing up. But the two guys on right of the top row look pretty good.  Thumbs up

Regards.

Middle fig top row....You might be right Ray
Maybe doesn't look right as he hasn't got a right arm yet...That might make it look a bit more natural....Otherwise it's 'tweak' time.
Machine gunner ?.....Don't worry ....Those are just the green stuff armatures....Arms still to do properly  Wink

Cheers - Phil.

Thanks Guys !

I'll try and get the pics of the figures just a little bit bigger next time....I really do seem to struggle with photobucket....When I paste them onto the forum page they either come out way too big or too small.....And I'm boggered if I can 'tweak' the images without going all the way back to the pics on my PC and editing them there.
It'll be me...I know  Embarrassed

Now I've started, I should be able to really crack on with them.

Cheers - Phil. (Will you be wanting any penguins Leon ?) Wink

Greetings

Nice to know there's progress. 

I can even imagine alternative uses e.g. defending the UK against tentacled horrors ...
