was thinking about using these guys as part of my reaper project, but im not sure if im going to or not!
the idea was, they are "night" creepers & apart from the urban strike team version the color schemes just never did it for me!
im still working on the leader, but here they are!

Any chance we get a picture where they're not in shadows?...it's a cool photo...but doesn't much show what you've done.

I think your Uber-dark photo really highlights the need for a spark on the figure...a really bright color for the Visors would make them extra intimidating...like the BORG with their head lasers....Color would be taken from the base color of the figures which I'm unable to determine.

I was thinking the same thing. A green visor would rule.

this pic is better, they actually are this dark!
the visor is just black, with gun metal round the outside.

Any chance of dropping a flashlight beam right in front of the figures and then taking another photo? Even if the figures were molded in black, some indirect lighting would show the details. The little bit that can be seen looks great.

will try, but they aint molded black, they are dyed & it's kinda deep black so wont make much difference!
these turned out even better than i hoped, wanted them to blend into the shadows, thats also why i have blacked out the eyes. these guys could sneak in & kill anything!

I agree with everyone else on the darkness of the photo and I also know how hard it is to take a pciture of a black/dark figure to capture the detail. Too much light or flash and they look grey. Unfortunately I do not have an answer on how this can be fixwd.

I also agree with you on the color concept of the Night Creeper, very promising mold ruined by hideous colors. The black color is an improvement especially when the highlights of the metal are accentuated with gun-metal color.
