Sci-Fi/Near Future Trooper [new pics 8/8/12]

[the commissar]

Looking very nice - I am waiting (im)patiently to find out who is making these figures!

[Ray Rivers]

Nice minis!

Excellent paint job! 

[commissarmoody]

Even unbased they look great.

[DoctorPete]

Are those new Pig Iron miniatures? 

[Centaur_Seducer]

You bloody tease!
Lovely PJ as ever. You should really start doing more tutorials for us to copy

[Steve F]

Nice paint job.  The figure is almost more "alternative present" than "near future".

[Scotty Speed]

Absolutely drop-dead gorgeous 

[Nimrod]

Very impressive paint job, as always i might add. 
And miniatures look quite promising.

Nope

I really want to do more but I've just not had the time recently. Perhaps with a few changes I can start finding the time again.

The figure is almost more "alternative present" than "near future".

Yup, agree there. I'd love to paint up some of these in faded greens for that 'Nam look, Flecktarn wearing Bundeswehr would work well, as would something deserty like the IDF.

Oh...



Better pics when these are finished off, and thanks for the comments everyone.

these are so nice! the goggles look amazing!

[Dentatus]

I'm interested, for sure. And your brushwork only makes them more enticing.

You know what really has us worried; this line turns into vapourware. 'Sorry, lads, but we just can't get them into production.' Or, worse, silence except for the winds blowing in the desert.

It happens, you know...

Still, really lovely work, and I've not seen your previous painting to cause me to automatically gush. 

Not sure if it's fair to dare you to do flecktarn at that scale, though.

"I really want to do more but I've just not had the time recently" - give us your colours then!

Possibly... but I think he told me a while back he was going to use some modern troops from Empress/Eureka etc...
