Wow, that all of it was done by one guy is absolutely incredible. I am even more impressed by dropzone now, and i was pretty damn impressed to start with. Thanks for clarifying that WestSide :)

There do look to be some flaws in the infantry – while CAD might have solved these I am not convinced it would have resulted in better figures overall, as it comes with flaws of its own. I'm inclined to agree with WestSide, given the top level of quality shown elsewhere, he must have had his reasons for doing the infantry by hand.

I'm currently working on some 10mm scale Scifi infantry. I'll be interested to hear whether opinions are the same once they are revealed.

My order finally arrived. I'll not say too much as I committed to writing a real blog-style review with CS, but if the detail on everything matches that on my Kodiak I'll be thoroughly impressed. GW should take notes on resin production from these guys - the detail is amazingly sharp with minimal flaws. When I say minimal I mean that the entire model has about a quarter cm^2 of paper thin flash and a single 1mm diameter bubble that I can see without opening the package.

One thing which blew me away:

That's a custom tray from KR in the army boxes (at least the small ones). Classy. Also a hand checked list of the contents. Other pics can be viewed here while I get something more organized together.
