Hi everyone, I have some concept art for Power armor troops:  I'll probably have these designed in 3d, and cast in resin. What do you guys think? Facebook link: www.facebook.com/ClearhorizonMiniatures |

Very nice. It's nice to see power armor that actually looks like it can fit the wearer inside.

Thanks! I think i'm going to remove the shoulder weapon, and have it attach to the left gauntlet instead.

Really nice!!
You could always make one of the arms separate and design several weapon arms/shoulder mounts?

Harold please keep the shoulder weapons  it really fits the jump troop idea as it can be stowed as drop takes place then can be deployed. Maybe have secondary weapon Ie small arms etc. to be carried by the trooper? |

Thanks Guys!
This is my current idea:
Weapon system that is separate, so you can decide to have it on there or not.
Another 2-missile micro missile launcher on the other gauntlet.
Designed to fit three in a drop pod, and also for spaceship boarding or dropping on their own, but in that case they have a detachable ablative shield, and it's very risky.
I would probably have two different leg sets, 1 torso, and two sets or arms... along with the shoulder system that could be taken off. And they'd come with enough parts for a squad of three.
I'm thinking of having these designed in 3D, and then printed and cast in resin.
Thoughts?

How robust is resin? Infantrywise? I have a phobia of dropping stuff lol
