Another Golgo Island sculpt from ERM, this time by Tom Meier. This is Renato Ramirez, transvestite Hitler clone and loony.

Another lovely figure to paint. :)

And a close up of the extremely detailed face:

Very nice work JB. Two posts in one day, have you been excused your chores for the bank holiday :D

I have been keeping out of the way as the fragrant soon-to-be-Mrs-JollyBob has had a cleaning mard on all day. Wardrobes have been emptied. I say no more as I have the fear in me.

Oh, good sir, and yet you manage to present such... well... "goodness" is not the right word.

I can sympathize on a very basic level. I´m currently packing up and throwing out for my impending move to Hull, and that´s without a lady in pursuit!

Still loving that paint job JB. I love the miniature but wish it did not have the gun :?

Is it just me, or does anyone else think he looks a lot like John Cleese? Especially in the side view, very Basil Fawlty.
