As some of you may recognise, this is box art from Modern Warfare 2. I'm not a very talented modeller, but I want to give this a go to challenge myself, no matter how long it takes to get on the board, I want my little guys to look good.

Initial ideas are to tackle the helmet first, Green stuffing the mouth piece, goggles and possibly the helmet attachment for night vision (or at least that's what I think it is). Does anyone have any suggestions otherwise? Or for the body maybe? Has anyone tried anything like this before? Base miniatures are bog standard Cadian troops.

Thanks in advance everyone.

It's not going to work with Cadians. The models are just too bulky to give that kind of look.

You'd want Elysians for that kind of body to start off of.

I tried it awhile back, and it just ends up looking like a cartoonist's impression of soldiers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/276958/1298686.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/276958/1298686.page GMT


for all these extra components you would need to sculpt the whole lot, you could make a small specialist/veteran unit like this but it would take ages to make a whole army. you could use thin 0.5mm plasticard for the straps to save time.

and you coudl use the machine guns from the necromunda weapon sprues: Give it a go
