Argh! Photobucket strikes again! You may want to swap your image hosting to Imgur, since they won't hold your images for ransom and make you pay $400 a year or whatever it is Photobucket wants to link images.

Success! And good work, too, especially on that banner. Are those Anvil Industry torsos? I've been wondering how well they pair with Guard bits.

Yes success at last. The website you recommended worked a treat. Easier to use and wasnt covered with as many adverts.
Thanks for the wonderful feedback everyone. The bodies, along with the greatcoat legs, are from Maximini. Haven't had too many problems using them with gw bits: the shoulder pads actually bulk up their slimmer bodies. Proportionally they are a tad smaller then regular gw guard, but the same as fw guard. Marines end up feeling a bit bigger standing next to them.
The mad man is my ministorum priest called Petite Jacques. Actually I like to say that the puppet is the priest and the man is just someone loud and crazy they've nabbed from the ranks to carry him. I'm going to try and get some full army pics once I've done a some repairs.

Please do put up the full army picture.
The guys you’ve done look great!
Nice to see a trench war themed army again.

Thank you judcottrell. Annoyingly I was setting them all up for full army pictures, and the banner bearer's arm came off. Then I couldn't find any glue to sort him out. Was thinking of plonking some fluff I've written for them in the relevant section too. You can never see too many trench warfare armies. In fact I was thinking of doing a WW1 British tunnelers themed force using Anvil Industries stuff. Kill-team size, and then try and get someone to play underground Shadow War games using the Calth tiles.

Hate it when that happens!
The British tunnellers idea sounds a lot of fun.
I used to love my Krieg Engineers. Would you equip them with Hades Breaching Drills?

It's a bleeding pain. If I took the pictures it would've just looked odd with his absence. That is an idea actually. I've got the current rules for them. Could plonk them on the table as their own little patrol detachment.

aweseome, really like the scheme - great looking tanks.
I also like the compact feel of the army, nice all round force with which to get to know the strenghts and limits of each component.
great stuff!

Great looking army!
I used to love my Medusas.
As Treads said there's a nice balance to the force.
Will you be adding more?

Well I originally designed them as a 1000 point army for the last edition, so I really wanted to cram in a good selection of stuff, and as much of a standard platoon as I could. The scions and Commissars were added for the current edition.
Sadly it's probably not going to get much bigger. The greatcoat legs from maximini only come in three designs which kinda limits things.
