Now that they are fully painted, you can better see the quality of the figures. The casts are good and the sculpting detail is very fine - one of them has a tiny cigarette dangling from his lip. The faces in particular have very shallow detailing, though excellent facial hair. The bayonets are a little clunky, I should really have filed them to a finer point before I painted them, but that's a minor quibble. For me, they are a lovely mix of realistic proportions, fine detail and steampunk flavour.
Enough waffle, here's some more pictures so you can judge for yourself.

Wow. Those are great!
Great job, and you beat me to finishing them. I got distracted by painting Veronique the Medic, and starting the Commandos!
Great job on these. Cant wait to see what you do with the Marines.
Thanks guys. My approach is to paint all the grunts first, then finish with the specials and characters. Keeps me focussed. Marines are next, hopefully quicker than this lot......
