These are my first 3 miniatures that are complete (out of a 10 man Tactical). I've completed one more but I really don't like the chest eagle so I'll try to fix that up and take some pictures. No updates in the near future, as there has been an overwhelming amount of rain in the Boston area and my basement flooded, causing me to have to move my drum set, hobby supplies, and everything else valuable down there.
(This will be a flamer guy)

C&C welcome and encouraged!
P.S: I know these are not amazing minis but the large pictures make them look much worse than they do in person.

Thanks, everyone. Yes, they definitely need more highlights.
@oldkey: They don't have arms because I find it is easier to paint the model when they aren't attached, as attached arms obscure details on the chest.
@Lennysmash: Thank you and the bases are mine. I use plasticard for the sidewalk/concrete sections and then I green stuff around it to sort of even it out. Then I put white glue on select areas, dip it in sand or Woodland Scenics gravel, and BOOM! Nice base. I really like the basing aspect, as I think a good base brings out the model well.
Again: Thank you! Keep the comments coming!

^I achieve that by drybrushing lighter greens on gradually. That makes it very smooth and not too sharp. Thanks everybody!
P.S: What do you guys think about the shield on the Flamer guy's hip? Y/N?
EDIT: The pictures are now up in the gallery, so PLEASE VOTE! Here's the link: http://www.dakkadakka.com/core/gallery-user.jsp?u=24947
