Couldn't resist posting this. He's going to be Hellboy's Army liason in my Pulp/Weird War II game. (If he's not in the right section, could a moderator move him please? Thanks)

Sorry if the photos aren't up to snuff. And I know that the uniform colours aren't exactly right, but, y'know, I don't care! :

I think he looks a little like "Thunderbolt" Ross from The Incredible Hulk...

Excellent, I like Him

Very nice indeed- what scale is he? And, if he's 28mm, who makes him?

He is indeed 28mm, from Black Tree Design, General Mark Clark in the Men of War (WWII) range.

I just stuck a moustache on him myself, and painted him to be slightly older.

EDIT: How rude of me, I meant to say thank you as well!

Really good.

Well done! Don't worry about the colors. When you make general you get to flout those regulations, just ask Patton!

Very nice. Love the tache. He looks like he could have stepped out of Red Alert...

Great looking conversion. The men of war collection is actually both well sculpted and reasonablely priced. Recently picked up a Hilter to command my Weird War Germans.

JollyBob · « **Reply #8 on:** November 14, 2007, 07:03:28 PM »

Yeah, they are good. I'm planning on getting a Hitler for the same purpose, only zombifying mine.

Great! Lovely paintjob, and the mustasche looks natural on him.

With the gray hair and mustasche you general has an uncanny resemblance to the actor who playe Colonel Sink in the tv-series Band of Brothers.

I was thinking the same. What is his name... He is in almost every war movie since The Platoon... He runs some sort of Holywood military company.

Are you thinking of Dale A. Dye?

(Yes, there it is in his biog.)

I've never seen all of Band of Brothers, but this guy is the go to for all military movies, and a genuine war hero to boot.

Must have been subconsciously channeling him!

Hammers · « **Reply #12 on:** November 14, 2007, 08:54:47 PM »

That's the guy.

And for Chrissakes man, see the whole series! It's some of the best war drama ever produced.

I got the box set for my Dad's birthday. I keep meaning to pinch it back and watch it. :oops:

Yes, then you can play the "Spot the British Actor" game.
