I'm glad you guys dig the design!

That is one seriously great sculpt- the Riot Armour is nice, not overblown, the helmet looks great and that rifle fits the bill for workmanlike firearms. I would imagine ones with shields and batons, and maybe one with a loudhailer will also appear?
Shields and Batons yes, I'm also considering gas-grenadiers, bikers, and command. Maybe even squad cars and riot squad armored vehicles...

i like it, proportions might be off somewhere in the torso? the way the arm join the shoulders with the shoulder armour on top looks very narrow, or low, or something …?
He's got a accurate human skeleton in there, but I can certainly beef him up. He will be "chukified" anyway when I scale him to 6mm - nothing can be too small at scale so things tend to get "fatter".

Whats the fluff with these guys? Are they used in the galaxy wide war or only when Earth it self is threatened?
They are never sent to the front lines of all-out wars, but can appear during planetary invasions, especially unexpected attacks where they act as first line of defense until the military can arrive. There will also be armed civilians, civilian vehicles, gangs and the like eventually - so a game where the local police try to quell a citizen revolt or cult uprising would be the sort of scenario where you'd find the forces of the PPF.
