Earth Infantry

Post by 'Mano » Thu Jun 10, 2010 11:31 am

Some soldiers I threw together, which were inspired by Niklas Jansson's take on the Unitron theme. I havent decided on any enemies for them to fight, but they can start by battling against my brother's monster army. =)

These are the riflemen (they travel light):

Another team:

These next two are heavier infantry, for when rifles don't cut it. The one on the left uses a pulse rifle, and the one on the right uses a machine gun:

These are sentries, who are in chare of gaurding tents and other important structures:

Finally, these are the medical officers:

Good stuff, ( :twss: ) I like how you used brown guns becasue no matter how I use them it makes the figs look like shit (literally) except the M1 and the Einfeld. Overall, I like the army. Good job!

Oh wait, they're peach. THEY SUCK.

And you will catch SO much flak for that.

Anyway, welcome. I like the combonation of SPIII pants and Army Men jackets, it gives them a sort of alternate-wwII look, like Resistance.

A fellow peach lover is always welcome to the forum! The soldiers look good, too bad I already committed to a tan/brown color scheme when this set came out.

I really like them, they look nice and the colour scheme is crisp. I also like the use of the Space Police legs, they look really good with the torso. Shame I only have one pair.

Needs vehicles, some light trucks would look really nice with these guys.

Well, I must admit I prefer Yellow figs, they look more classic and... "right", but I guess peaches are just a variation so LEGO could make more realistic colored figs, not to mention that all the sets with peach figs are like from movies or something...

Oh well, since they are the excuse of mayhem, thats a good thing...

Ah, I see. You're using the Hispanic term for 'bro or dude, 'mano, an abbreviation of hermano, or brother. Interesting.

PS welcome to the forums!

Depends what you want for your army & what you can handle. I started back up from the dark ages myself. The first thing I built was simple, a truck & jeep for my guys to ride in...

Well, maybe some light vehicles like technicals, trucks or humvees. A light tank and simple aircraft, not much
