Thanks, Fellas. I'm pretty happy with them.
To most people this probabily just seems like a bunch of M16s... but I'm nutty like that.
Airslide, check your email... I upladed some files for you.
RF, Glad you like them. I think that 5.56mm PDW variants will become more common if and when the M16 family starts to get phased out of the battle rifle role in order to make room for the FN SCAR or whatever hits the scene in the comming years.
bfx arena 2008, these will sold at some point. Possibly as an official TGC pack.
Butters, thanks, man! It wasn't as much as a PITA as I'd feared to get them in the hands. The hands themselves are in a bit of an awkward position though (especially the thumbs!). I'd originally hoped to use Loc's stripper or Bond1's bikini girl to model VWEAPs but didn't get around to remapping the characters. These guys seemed pretty appropriate and have decent deformation, support hands are properly in-line and the respirators and flash hoods make them easy to put a bunch in a scene together without looking too much like clones. FYI, I scaled up the VWEAPs to 120% of the HUD gun size and the SAS guys with S10 masks are 100% scale in FPE. The guys in flash hoods are 90% (I think). Anyways, they look the right size when you're standing shoulder to shoulder or staring down the business end at point blank. Like you pointed out, it does make me want to spruce up the definition on the SAS guys but I don't have time to mess with that right now. Without anisotropic filtering (I have it on 16x) they look as blurry as the characters.
