Very nice, especially the desert camo! But I suppose it will tax your strength pretty heavily painting such little details on an entire squad... My hat is off to you if you pull it off!  :)

Actually, the camo is quite easy, lurker

I have a lot of them painted up - I am trying for an entire army.  So far I have:

Ducal Militia
Hussars
HMG-85/T
Hussar Kaptain

any kind of camo is really easy to paint on...when I do it, which isn't often anymore, you just paint the colors on, and then if you want to get technical like Dave did you can then do detailing, and even that doesn't take too long to do...

Very nice! I especially like the gunmetal, not to bright and not to murky. Looks used, but not rotten and falling apart.

you should wash the guy with black ink.

I can sometimes post examples.

the underwear would contrast better. i think that also the gun and shoulderplate could benefit.

apart from that, very nice.

nice posing and very good trooper.

the painting of the vulcan, however, I somewhy do not like so much...
Itīs done well, but maybe the black does not appeal to me..
perhaps with some grey to soften the monotony?


the trooper is so much better... perhaps the comparison does it..

Okay, so I went about changing the Vulkan - here are some WIP pics

The Vulkans now have a fuller color.  They are still black, but the effect is much better.

I really liked the desert camo - but I like the Vulcan even better now. I love the idea of the gear on the hand. Little details like that make a world of difference. It makes me want to go back and do that on mine. The only thing I would do differently is either "checkerboard" the yellow area or add some kind of unit marking. It stands out brightly and is a perfect place for a pattern or detail that really catches the eye.

I have to admit, seeing these has made me think about doing some painting over the holidays. It's been a while and would be a LOT of fun...

Only parts of it are black - the rest is a very deep blue-gray.  Thanks for the compliments, all around.
