Some nice ideas there and some hard to find parts I think! I am not sure I like the blank faces though.

Ditto - I think I had said that on other "faceless" work you did...

Great customs, but the faces...  :0

I love them. This is weird cryptic art that you will never see anywhere else.

Why aren't the weapons white?

I know that the missing faces lead to a controversy again and again but this time I really think they fit, because you can paint your own expressions as well as your own clothing. I first used white heads/hands but the figures looked too plain.
Unfortunately white weapons are very hard to find and the original color-sets had chrome weapons, so I used the modern equivalent.

Best wishes

Nice!
I´ve done some similar work past years. Like the others above I prefer them with faces though. Without faces they´re kinda creepy, but then that makes them useful as "ghost figures" or something.

Again a great work...

The idea with the faces is really good.

Great, I love color themed items. I personally prefer the plain white heads and hands - to me they then look like marble sculptures like you would have in a gallery. I did a little art gallery diorama with some once and it looked really nice that way.

I feel I should just emphasize that I really like the fleshtone heads and hands. It's visually very interesting.
