Was it Eric Porter? I looked it up!

It was and I don't think the model looks much like him. I must I am slightly underwhelmed by the figure. I like the police inspector very much though,but the Sergeant leaves me a bit cold. :?

I'm still not getting this pledging kickstarter thing so not sure which of these figures I'll be able to purchase in the future.

Have to agree. The pose isn't very dynamic. I can't put my finger on it, but its not exactly what I was expecting..  :-I

I like Mike Owen's work, but it's a bit of a shame they changed sculptors for the last set.  :?

I like the Old Bill sculpts shown so far, so will be going for those.
Being sculpted by Mr Owen is a bonus in my book, as they should mix well with my Artizan stuff.




......but the Sergeant leaves me a bit cold. :?

Why?

Did the nasty bugger run off with your think wooly jumper?

You fool!

I just think the pose is a little unimaginative given the inspector figure is much more animated. ::)

And there is a great example of the whole 'eye of the beholder/personal preference' thing as I've seen/heard a few comments saying the inspectors pose is weird or what's he doing with that arm.....  ;)

I agree, but from what I understand, Mr Saleh was/is too busy to have got them done any time soon.
So many projects..... so little time.......

Okay… I’m a bit lost here. I thought that all figures, so far, were sculpted by Mike Owen? :?
