Well here's another sacrifice to the fetish of e-bay.
I'm afraid I could only fit the front views of the five models in because of the size restrictions,but if you visit the auction you can see larger pictures of each model from all four sides, so if you have the time please take a look, there are a lot more details to see.

On the modelling and painting side of things these guys definitely gave me a few headaches.
I originally intended them as tabletop pieces, which is why I used metallics and kept the bases quite simple, however I got caught up in all those little details and ended up spending far to long on them, now I'm not quite sure what they would be classed as, although I'm sure you good people will soon set me straight on that, lol.
I think it's also worth mentioning that if you want to put these models in more dynamic poses, as opposed to the usual Sunday afternoon stroll posture, then make sure you take
those bulky shoulder plates and trophy racks into account when positioning the arms, I managed to fluke it but it was a close call.

Anyway, thanks for your time, comments and criticism are always welcome and next time I promise something a little less commercial and a lot more interesting.

I think it is higher table top level or low showcase level,lol. Really hard to say. I like the clean painting and the smooth blendings and I think it turned out much too well for table top level but for high showcase level the metals are a little bit to flat and the bases to simple. Pretty good job at the black parts by the way. I think they all turned out really good and I wouldn't use them for gaming, I would definitly put them into my showcase

White Dwarf quality AT LEAST. Smooth blends, solid colours, nice metalics, real nice natural-looking bases - not really sure how you could fault these. Great work!
