Looking good! If you're still worried about being too dark drop and edge highlight of regal blue to the shoulders and helmet but I think they're fine as is.

PS with your thread rename, I didn't read it as knapsack the first time ;D

Was thinking of doing something similar with my Corporate Tech buildings and wondered how you managed to get all 8 sides to line up?

Well, this will be easy, I thought. Well it was not. At first I aimed at creeating 8 "wedges" at the correct angle, but no matter where I looked, I could not find any suitable component to use. I then designed one using 3D design sofware, but then discovered that printing big stuff at shapeways is silly expensive. I then experimented with tape on the backsides, creating a sort of wall ammo belt that would fold, but that did not work either. Finally I came up with using small metal brackets to fix opposing sections at the correct distance (using a lazy webcalculator since I have purged all knowledge of geometry from my puny mind). Having four opposing pairs at the correct distance I could glue a roof on, thereby locking everything in place. I added 3 lengths of plastic strip to cover each "gap" and strengthen the whole structure.

Easy. :D

And now I am sort of hoping that someone finds out an intelligent way of doing this using about a tenth of the time I did... ::)

Gamecraft 10mm. With a little added grittyness to the plastic surface. Great little roads these.

Thanks, gents! It was good fun too. Do love the Wasteland stuff. Time to paint soon. However, I have run out of spraycan undercoat, and for roads and buildings, I really want something that sticks better than the vallejo airbrush primer.
