This is my first completed figure (that I have been proud enough of to post here). He is the leader of the Shadow Squad. He is a Army Ranger that leads a special team of covert operatives on missions that SEAL Team Six won't even touch. The team is cooperative between the US and the UK, with SAS,CIA, SEAL, even an ex-IRA explosives expert. Should be very interesting dynamics.
Would love some suggestions on improvements and possible accessories. I hope to have the next member ready in about 2 weeks.

Good job. No real help with backpack or gun suggestions, but I am looking forward to seeing him geared up.

Not bad at all!
A couple of more pics from different angles would help us to see possible areas of improvement. From this angle it seems like the head is too low, no visible neck.
The only crit I can think of is to paint some of the same camo from the legs on the arms as well.
I'm looking forward to see the next member.

Weapon suggestion: you can't go wrong with an MP5:

Ok, well I haven't posted more because I decided to go a different direction with Shadow Squad.

While still a work in progress, I like the 25th anniversary style as opposed to the ARAH style.
In the picture I have Vapor, Spectre, Mist, and Spook. Vapor is the closest to being "mission ready." Mist is close, just need some touch-ups.

Vapor is the team sniper. He is just waiting on a baseball cap. I will take some pictures of him in his ghillie suit and sniper riffle.

vapor looks good, mist as well. What torso does she have?

I got that off AngelForge. She was the main reason for the switch from ARAH. Don't like any of the female torso from that time frame.

Really need the cap to finish the whole outfit.
Vapor's real name is Kai Hayha. He is the grandson of The White Death, Simo Hayha, a Finnish Sniper and the greatest sniper that ever lived. Kai was born in the US. He joined the Marines at 18 and quickly found his way to Scout Sniper detachment. "Kai not only could kill a house fly at 500 yards, he could do it in the middle of Time Square on New Years Eve and never be seen."
