Do you have a link to a pic?  I'm not sure if I know the sculpt - color me interested.

Jim

Its on the Black Army Productions website, under their Champions of History line, It's called Abel, Puritan Witch Hunter or something similar, it's been posted on these boards, I have one in the middle of being painted, it's a very nice little sculpt. I have, so far, been dissapointed with only one of Docs minis and I think his company does great work.
I am looking for the following Deadlands minis:  Shotgun Thug, Lost Soul, Cleaners, Railroad Workers & Feral Dead. If you have any of these minis, or if you are one, please send me a PM.

Found it, thanks!  A neat sculpt - I wish there were more shots of it from different angles.  There are some really nice miniatures in that Champions of History line - I'm looking forward to checking out the rest of the lines later.

No problem! The mini is actually better than the picture would have you believe, once you get it in hand its nice and detailed!

Some appealing minis there, but the look is mostly inspired by the Salem witch trials (1690s) and Witchfinder General (1640s).  If you want to be pedantic, Kane was a lot earlier than that: Howard had him sailing with Drake as early as 1578.  So maybe it's worth having a look at the Foundry Swashbucklers and Vendel Border Reivers too?

(Here's a post from my blog about comics, which discusses the evolution of Solomon Kane's appearance:

Agreed, we need more angles.   o_o

Love the Tesla figure they've got too.
