They look great so far Ross. The blonde sniper looks like Blackout the Cobra Sniper.

That would be cool to have a squad of them. I think Forbidden Planet sell Sideshow scale scenery like a Cobra throne.

yeah, theres a throne + broken wall with snake eyes wolf. i might make some, used to make houses & stuff for games workshop stuff @ my local games shop. one of my "special talents" i should list on my CV! my dad taught me, he's the master! i remember he once made a house for gw scale, perfect window frames, individual tiles with a big hole in the roof (debri on the floor inside!) with one wall all smashed in, looked 100% perfect! might get back into GW when i get back, not gonna start another band or do airsoft so i need to find a hobby!

Sounds like you could make a small business making scenarios for 3 3/4´s and sell them in here as Bftb-specials

Ironblood said it, I confirm it; the sniper looks a lot like Blackout.
And I can't dislike that

. He looks like a 12'' version of my

figure! So cool!
