Those men and the walkers from Hasslefree. I have some walkers about that short. I should show them to you guys as I modded them from Warzone, sigh, such high hopes, and then they made mistakes that lost them so much! So hard to get the troops nowadays from the factions.

Cheers Vik! The lasgun looks good with that mini!  Love the booney hat!  Kind of looks like a Vietnam era US Army grunt! 
I have a female sniper in the works using a female armature from hasslefree, and my steampunk sniper rifle and one of the skull sniper heads. I'll get some pics of that on my thread tomorrow.
I'm hoping to have the steampunk weapons ready for sale sometime soon.
I agree with Dave. A final light highlight on those arbites will help to brighten them up.

well you aint seen nuthin yet... new update strting...NOW!
so gents... here it comes... the before shown pics of that steampunk soldier were only rather rough WIPs...
groupshot of things in the works...:
and then the new really up and coming steampunk soldier... note the boiler on his backpack... and the conection with a cable to the steampunk lasgun...the "magazin" i used as a inbetween storage point so to say... i fugured a direct connection would be not my style...and the magazin as such would be too tiny for my stlye too... so a combo would be better...
see for yourself:
also... i just had to give the standard lasgun a bayonet...it is from the DA kit... and also the base is not done yet and probably a bit of resculpting of the body will happen with GS soon...
as for the other fellas... i am currently still figuring out if i clipp off the pistol grip of the sniper rifle... i think it looks fishy atm for what i am going for... and the laspistol will also get a pwercable to a steampowerpack soon... same goes to the sniper rifle...
cheers, vik

Nice looking stuff Vik! I like the bayonet!
Yeah, the pistol grip on the sniper rifle maybe needs some re-thinking. I had to cut it off for my sniper too....not sure how I'm going to sculpt the hand though, with pistol-grip or without. Eiter way, I had to cut the existing grip off.
Can't wait to see more!

They look great, Vik! The little changes are fantastic - the bayonet fits so well on the guy with the pot helmet, they could have been designed to go together!
The pistolier is really characterful too - where's that head from?

oh... the head is definatly too from a fantasy GW kit... but as i got them from a bitz site i can only say that it is from the standard emperial kits...not really sure which one...
and the pitol wielding chap need some changes to really be done... i have to look at it for longer it seems... there is still lacking that certain something with it for me^^
and well what can i say... the empire stuff certaily feels as if someone has designed it to work splendidly for conversion work... have you noticed that the range of hand on these is remarkably more diversified thab the 40k range?...
