cooooool, like the land sail idea! 
Yes I like it, I'm thinking along the lines of stripped down cars or even scratch built land crafts

What day is it mate LOL  Got you mate got you
I have made a few individual gangers just to get a feel for them, also worked out ideas for others and back stories.
One of the things I wanted to try has worked out perfectly (makes a change) the parts from different manufactures and the look turned out almost spot on as to my image
I will take some pics (really this time) of what I have done once I find the camera and the charger but it is only about 6 minis  but you can get an idea of where I am going.
Plus I have been looking through some of the stuff I have ( surprised myself ) found some cool stuff with great potential so might chuck photos of them up as well

OK been a while but just wanted to knock up a quick review of MY WAY Miniatures I have received.
Overall great castings next to no blemishes clean crisp detail and full of character, actually the only blemish I found was on the shoulder pad which they kindly fixed with a small amount of GS
I have taken some pics which are a little blurry but get the point across I hope, the actual design of the Aztec Marine is amazing the detail reflecting Aztec culture is spot on and greta twist to the usual marine format.
Plus the choice of backpacks offer a great alternative look to the model but both inkeeping with the aesthetics of the look, the power fist has the added extra sense of of atmosphere as it is clenching the heart of his most recent foe.
On top of this it has an almost rock like texture to it along with this the other arm holding his weapon of choice based on the Aztec Macuahuitl, this really completes the look nicely only finished of by the Putin looking head wearing the coolest marine headdress.
This really is a cool addition to the marine market and stands out from the rest in an original way, just cant wait to slap some paint on him now.

quite a good review...and nothing what I hadn´t expected from our two favourite Russian modellers...
but!:
I have taken some pics which are a little blurry but get the point across I hope, the actual design of the Aztec Marine is amazing the detail reflecting Aztec culture is spot on and greta twist to the usual marine format.
er....I can´t see them....?....

OK thanks for the piss take lads  to explain the pics issues I was actually writing the review when my sister decided a surprised visit with her new feller in tow, who is also an old mate of mine which led to some catching up so I quickly posted the review
Not realising I had not posted the bloody pictures  so pictures will now be added also I never reviewed the heads which offer some great opportunities to recreate a certain style of guard or even some great original looking troops.
There are masked and unmasked version which both offer some great details although the masked are my favourites, if you want some great looking troop heads they are worth the investment.
Will back in 2015

OK been a while I know but after Vik's cool Grot tank I got inspired,so after a little time squeezed in between decorating the bathroom, bedroom and a bad case of man flu I started to build something I wanted to do for a while.
As the golden rule states no pics it never happened I have provided the proof hope you like it, o yes bonus points for anyone who can guess what it's based on
