I am working on the next 2 crew members right now. Shouldn't be too long now when the 1st of my 222s come in from the custom shops of the Hun :P
I'll post more of the figures as they are done. THe major needs a little tweeking yet - esp. his cap, but he's got the most realistic looking face 8)

I'm suprised how well that head works on the

Nope, not rich, just do my train selling/trading in order to get more 1/18th stuff. I do custom work on G scale trains for extra $$$ on a different forum.

Actually, the arms and hands are standard 21c pieces from the D-Day style, which is how many of their figures look.
