As a longtime lurker I thought I had better step out of the shadows and start posting a few pictures.

Here are some Copplestone Predators that I painted a little while ago.

Those are great Overlord!

I've often considered getting those, but have yet to pull the trigger.  Are they much taller than copplestones other stuff?

Yeah, a kinda greyish brown colour as I remember.  I'm struggling to remember exactly as it spent most of the movie invisible and the end rolling through mud.  :)

But I like the really organic, natural green tones of these ones better.

Sure, I like the look, too.

Very nice work!
The green works really well. I especially like the spots on their bodies, very Predator like!!!

This is a quick pic of a Predator with 2 other Copplestone figures.

The Predator is slightly taller than a typical man.

Actually, they're conversions of the Evil Snowmen

Only joking! ;-)

You can find them in the Future Wars line as "Hunter Aliens".
