They're , roughly 25 - 30mm tall which I buy and paint. I did the first Darkness one (with the two pistols) because I thought it would be cool (well...not 'cool'...) and then I wanted some enemies for him, so I painted figures of his (at the time) rivals, Shogun, Malthus and Murmur. Then it just went from there and now I have a shelf full of the little bastards which you can see in the .

Which company makes those mini's Thommy? I have a hard time trying to find mini's with a more modern feel in my area.

They're all from different companies for the most part. , the biggest and best known company (at least in the UK) is next to useless for anything that isn't from their own game worlds, though the original Darkness and couple of the others were made by them. Some of the weirder fantasy stuff (Dar'Kath, Aterius Angelus, Edmund Grindal, Bleeder and Ta-Te) are made by but they're no good for moderns at all. I have a couple I got from but, again, you're mostly looking at fantasy (albeit it steampunk) with those guys.
Which leaves my two favourites, who made the Freya, Marta Hayes, Krissy, Bisley, Dante, Hammer, Shogun and Red Menace and who are awesome for modern figures, particularly female ones and who made Drakus, Abbadon, Dragon and the armoured version of Dante and are great for demons and monsters. They have some sci-fi stuff that could easily pass for modern. The problem for you would be that those guys are UK-based, though they ship to the US and take paypal and stuff.
So yeah. Shop around!

Haha. It takes some practice, and there's way better examples out there than I can muster, but thanks all the same!
I think I'm the first guy to find a way to make e-fedding more nerdy...

Thanks, I am going to have to check those companies out. About all we have in my area is Game Workshop and the RP shops around here only seem to sell Reaper and Warhammer models. Been trying to find modern ones for awhile.
And yes Sandman, while this type of art is rough (my eyes hate me for some of the models I've done), it just takes practice and patience.
