Those look great..

The eyebrows on the first guy... :) Amazing how such a detail makes so much difference.

And I love the wire on the spears too...

Uhm. Why does that guy have dots on his shorts? :o 
(you knew SOMEONE would ask, right, master cheng?)

Gordon & Tahra,
...only people of my age think of 'piles' straightaway :lol:
I had wanted to have that guy with the thick eyebrows wearing his boxer(shorts) with embaressment but didnt change him because I didn't want to mess up the blu tack under his hat again.
