The Victors (4)

As mentioned yesterday, my order from Mad Robot Miniatures arrived.
I had ordered one set of each
-Beret Heads
-Bald Heads
-Boonie Hats
-Tanker Heads Classic 
-Colonial Defense Heads
-Heads with Aviator Sunglasses
-Marine Utility Heads
-Personalities Set
Here you can see a close-up of the Heads with Aviator Sunglasses.
Absolutely sharp details and excellent cast.
 
The first soldier to get his head was the driver, with a standard Tanker Head.
Perfect fit!
 
For the TC I selected the Bruce Willis head from the Personalities Set.
Due to the shoulder ornaments, it looks a bit funny - like missing his neck.
 
A small blob of Greenstuff, sculpted to a scarf solves this quickly.
 
The flag bearer got a yelling head from the Beret set - fits the pose so naturally, almost like custom made.
 
The guy with the drink got a head from the Sunglasses set, cool pose, cool head.
 
The loader got another standard Tanker Head.
 
This is a standard GW head from the IG Command Squad sprue.
 
The well known and well used Sergeants head.
 
Another head from the GW command sprue.
 
For this wounded soldier the friendly Sunglasses Head was the natural selection :)
 
And a Sentinel Pilot's head completes the troop.
The Commissar gave up his rifle (Thanks Vik for the feedback)
 The Commissar still needs sculpting work, everything else is now complete.
 
 
What do you think of the Commissar? Is the pose proper now with the sword?
 
Finally I exchanged the wire cable for the Ork with a Greenstuff rope.
 
I think this is better now.
 
So, what you you think?
Suggestions, feedback, comments?
Cheers
Klaus
