Nice collection, the minis seem to harmonize well with each other despite being from very different ranges

Cheers chaps.

Made a change from painting hordes of khaki clad 20mm figures!

Oh well... Back to Afghans and Iranians and Iraqis till I figure out what I want to do next...

The bikes are old Void figures, still available from Scotia-Grendel.

That is a great idea brilliantly executed, mini selection and the painting all work well together to get "the look".  Bravo  :D

I can recognise most of the minis in there but cannot place the trench coated, bald headed guys and I cannot work out who did the gunsharks Sinister and exter , or even who they are based on.... fancy giving me a clue?

Thanks for posting

All of those are from East Riding Miniatures Corpoarte Wars range:

Sinister and Dexter are in the "Enforcers" section, and the other guys are the "Slicks".

Very nice, indeed. I did recognize those figs as something seen before - but I had completely forgotten who made them - thanks!!! I'm definitely going for some of those cops - a local toy store has the Italian Lamborghine police car in die-cast 1:48 (3 cars for 40 Dkr, which is about £4) - and it looks sufficiently futuristic to be used in a 'robo-cop'-like setting ;-)
