Very cool, chukw. I like the stylization and nice color treatment.

Thanks, Tom! As a color-blind guy I steal my palettes from photos when appropriate. I did this one from my own warped viewpoint- different kind of soldier-

Awesome work all around. Made even more impressive by your color blindness.

Ah yes, these are VERY good. Don't worry about the palette thing - a lot of us non-colorblind artists do the same thing :)

Thanks, guys! I did this one for a model kit aftermarket set review- I mean, why not? Another Commonwealth trooper who might nbe riding around in a Landrover Wolf Defender somewhere in A-stan.

Terrific stuff dude. I really like the loose drawing style you have with some of these, though the Warhammer guy is also really cool.
They say you should never hit a man with a closed fist, but it is, on occasion, hilarious.

Great stuff. At first, the pixelated camouflage bugged me, but then I saw some photos of the real deal; I hadn't realized the military started using that.

Lovely work overall.

Belated thanks, Doh! I research all the "real" stuff, as we modelers are an anal-retentive bunch. That said, here's a piece that's definitely unreal. I'll post the finished version in a bit.
