The ones with Tommy guns would be perfect for the resistance of Crete during ww2.

or for an italian Weird World War team.

That's what I was thinking, Sangennaru! Or for a Vatican zombie-hunting squad. In fact, the tommy-gunners would be perfect for my (long planned but not yet executed) 1920s zombie project. Mmmmm.

I oversaw the Crete comment. Sadly that attire is too western to represent Greek Orthodox priests. Not only are they missing the Kamilavkion (the typical hat) and a beard (easily sorted), the Greek Rasso (the "robe) looks completely different and is usually not tied at the waist.

I really wish someone would sculpt some Cretan partisans at some point.

Still for Italy or the Western front these are a beauty! I wants them!

These are great. They'd be great for Occult Wars games. Have they been picked up by anyone?
So many projects..... so little time.......

Maybe make them with open hand so that we can put what ever firearm we fill is appropriate.

Excellent and with the addition of the nuns, this range will be just what I have been looking for to do a game based, loosely, on Chrono Crusade.

The monks are great, Tommy guns were an excellent choice for them I think. Spot on.

I'm eagerly awaiting the Swiss Guard. Renaissance soldiers with SGs, how cool is that? :-*

Love the monks, but not so sure about the other ones.  I'd like to see more accessories identifying them as religious people, such as the cross the fourth one is bearing.

I thought the robes and tonsures did a great job in saying "clergy" personally.

weapons; yes, other styles of rifles, shotguns, pistols (automatic, revolvers) would do nicely.  Also fire axes, knives, clubs, maybe even police batons?

Nice greens.

Definitely a vote here for more figures! Both modern- and pulp-armed. Bring on the Jesuits with shotguns!

Some o0f the Italian police in their nice uniforms would be good, too.

I think this was actually on my 'wish list' (a thread with 'miniatures you'd like to see' or similar...)

Hmmm.... Need to know when and where they are available....

If you were to do some eastern priests I.e Othrodox I'd love to see one who looks a bit like this:
