Love the dirt effect on the long coats! How do those minis compare to stuff like Foundry, scale-wise?

I do like those odd bald blokes with the funky greatcoats. Strangely reminiscent of Richard O'Brien in Dark City [apart from them having brown and he and his pals having black coats, of course].

Some lovely blending and the dusty effect is outstanding :-*

I have some of their Interpol Cops - can make a comparision photo this evening if noone beats me to it - But I think they mix very well with the Street Violence range....

I have had the first guy, not-Sinister, and his partner not-Dexter undercoated on the end of my painting table since February. Up till now I haven't been able to give them the attention they deserve, but this makes me want to get back to them.

Excellent job, major.  :)

They are from the 2000ad comic strip "Sinister/Dexter", two hitmen in a giant future city called Downlode.

Someone on here based a whole campaign on the background not so long ago, actually. One of the better strips in recent years, IMO.

EDIT: Yeah, this was it:
