The Prof is slurring his words, that's Silent Invader not Slinet Invader!   :)

Thanks.  :)

They're all Conquest though taken (I think) from 2 or 3 different sets.  The only one I made any changes to is second left as viewed: the original was in a tunic but I added a hood/cuffs/etc to turn it into a capot and added a tail/bobble/etc to change what was a stocking cap into the style of a bonnet de police.

My two favourites are 1st and 5th from left, fresh-faced youth versus droopy-eyed veteran. Lovely sculpting.

I must say, I`ve really became a fan of SI`s painting style, though the era isn`t my cup of tea at all.

Thank you.  :) It's certainly evolved a bit during the course of the comp.
