Not sure if anyone has seen these (a search for Empress Minis didn't yield much), but if you happen to be looking for ULTRA-modern figures in body armor with MOLLE webbing, covered in pouches and toting M4 carbines, these may be the only thing out there.

Not *too* expensive at ~$2.35/fig.
Here's them painted up in Multicam: http://www.flickr.com/photos/31905569@N05/5022668237/

Personally I don't like to wargame wars I actually fought in, but I must say this fella did an amazing job. I remember seeing the greens for those a few months back. I believe he sculpts all of his own products as well.
Damn looking at those further even the oakley issue sunglasses are spot on.

Listen, my children, as I pass onto you the truth behind Willy Wonka and his factory. For every wonka bar ever created in existance, Mr. Wonka sacraficed a single Oompa Loompa to the god of chocolate, Hearshys. Then, he drank the blood of the fallen orange men because he fed them a constant supply of sugary chocolate so they all became diabetic and had creamy, sweet-tasting blood that willy could put into each and every Wonka bar. That is the REAL story behind willy wonka's Slaughter House! |

I love these! I hope he does many more figures for this particular line. Now I just need to find an appropriate Wargame to use them in...

Actually no, normal scales. You seldom find historicals in heroic scale.

Not unless you like Cadians with tiny baby heads on them.

Fething awesome.
The heads might still look good, I always found the Cadians to be a bit bobbleheaded anyway.

Easily some of the most detailed modern war figures that I've seen. Very well done, makes me wish that I gamed more historical and realistic stuff.

I've got about 20 of these Empress minis after a failed attempt to get into Ambush Alley. The scale doesnt match up w/ gamesworkshop at all. These models are taller and more slender than both guardsman and space marines. I'm not sure the heads would work well with cadians either.
They are great miniatures however.
