Anyone know who makes this fig? I thought it was Baker Company but no sign of it on their website so I'm probably mistaken, cheers in advance  :)

It's very similar but I'm pretty sure my figure predates Empress.

It looks like Baker company to me. The rifle looks very similar.

Sure I saw this with Black Tree Design? Maybe that's where some of the Baker Company stuff ended up?
