<div class="IPBDescription">/me points to rr.org</div>The new Marine Models are excellent. Good job Squeal Like a Pig. The things I wanted to point out are:
<s>The turtle neck type uniform part might take some getting used to considering it's a bit strang looking. But that's just me.</s>
The utility shoes look like futuristic casts. =D
The pants don't look like jeans anymore. =(
The laser light is a nice touch, but there should at least be something in game for the Marines that gives you a laser light like that.
I miss the arrow things under the eyes, it made them look like they were from a tribe(which was a good thing).
What do you think? And for natural-selection.org's sake, update the Screenshots section.

Those ammo canisters at his belt look very nice too.

nice comments monse
Better than in other mods where you see some badly textured faces.
The armor standing away from the arms in the first shot looks fine, as it is realistig.
pockets are good. neck armor 0wnZ0r$.
all over all.. great.
real sentences.. not my thing. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

Yeah the "window" has been on for a while. Anyways it's more commonly reffered to as a visor.
with some armour changes....looks nice
lol good one.
@Jedi Yoshi: Yeah.. this visor thingie sounds quite good.
I didn't just add the laser light for eye candy. I specifically added it as per a request from Charlie, who mentioned he was going to add the lasers in game.
However, he's pretty busy working on more important things at the moment, so I don't know if this is going to make it in or have to be reserved for a version 2 thing.
Laser sight is good.... I like how you fixed the hands to look like their <b>first-person equivalent</b> (the fingers are no longer gloved). I really love how the jumpsuit is grey now.
I'm also glad that you removed the little arrows under his eyes.
*thwap*
If there's one thing you can't say about NS, it's that the models are poor. NS has better models than almost *any* *released* game right now. Check out www.readyroom.org if you need more convincing, nukem - there are some great shots.
In-game, there is no laser sight. The sight on the model is cosmetic only.
Anyways I was wondering Squeal Like A Pig, why you didn't keep those yellow aroow things underthe eyes(like in the header at the readyroom). I would understand if it was for the realism, but then again NS isn't aiming for realism.

I'm sorry! <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->
Regarding the new version.
I'm happy they removed the goofy tatoos and the blue jeans. But the brown thing on the belt still looks very 1939 and he could still look much less like a halloween kid...
My opinion is: Cory has GREAT potential but he's making the marine way too plastic-actionfigure when it should b more ergonomic-clothing-a lá-space-manga-marine-badass
We're in all the North American time zones, as well as some European ones, and maybe a couple over in Asia or Africa.
