Put them in line to show the look i was after when finished,that is to say the firing line once engaged and/or starting to move forward,so in essence a real mix of poses.

WOW  :o  ;D  :-*  And I thought I was painting to many at a time. What is your turn over rate, have you been documenting for awhile before posting. I am so happy to have had the priviledge to admire your work, very inspiring.

Edit:  Thanks for turning up the burner.

Even started in 2009 that's still very impressive. Especially at this level of details. There are at quite a high standard.
