Scouts are coming along nicely. Do they have any buddies sporting sniper rifles somewhere, or are they hiding under camo cloaks?

@Zerg - Yep! I wanted the Sargent to stand out from the rest of the rabble and I really like the look of the Space Wolves heads for that grizzled looks
@Graven - Haha, you're far to kind sir!
@Mad - You nailed it, in our next marine game you may see them fielded
@Cam - Its not far off, I will need to see if I can find a mess of skulls and I'll make an objective marker along the same lines (but it will be a while away no doubt)
Update: After a very busy weekend with my sons 4th! birthday party and all the associated work with that, all I managed to look at was two TL las turrets for Razorbacks

@Gits - Agreed, I have two more 5 man groups to build/paint and I have another two SW heads to add to the Sgt's, gotta follow the theme eh?
@WarbossDakka - Heck yes! After reading the changes to how TL works I instantly found some turrets that were put away in storage.

To be honest, I think the amount of glow is just right, but I guess it is down to personal preference. Oh, and the lens look great as well, you've chosen a very nice blue for it.
