I reworked the hard suit that I'd posted a while ago and I'm pretty happy with the result. I resculpted the hand and the cannon arm, sharpened some of the detail and added a small camera array to the front. This can be easily clipped and filed off to create a bubble helmet if you prefer the older style. I'll be making these available for purchase once I create some other variants, command, heavy weapon etc. What sort of variants of the basic armor would you all like to see? Thanks!

Hi Roebeast, I think keep the basic armour, make some pose variants, and slightly change the shape of the knee/groin/shoulder armour to show differant field variants, poses could be 1 with a larger back pack/comms unit, a couple with jump packs, some with heavy weapons, chain gun, flamer, maybe one with a missle pod, and a couple more basic rifleman poses.
Great sculpts but I'm not sure I like the feet though. Cheers

I like it.
There are a few tweaks that I think (but what do I know) would make it even better, would you like to hear?
Happy to PM if you prefer.
Michael.

Good sculpt, great You add some cameras. IMVHO first verify the market's response – make basic set of 3-4 grunts and 1-2 leaders. If You are really bold add some special weapons, like SAW, launcher or flamer. Probably I would buy such set one day, such lowtech power (?) armours are charmingly old style. |

I see these guys with multi optional weapon backpacks and having all the same armour and all the same hand weapon. For example a SAW's trooper could have twin boxed over the shoulder missile launchers or a single over the shoulder rotary auto canon with external ammo belt and feed bolted on to the backpack, much like GZG original NAC Power armoured troop's. |
