Thanks for the kind comments.  Currently trying to regain the painting mojo.  ::)

He is indeed one of Marks; part of the original Grenadier Future Warriors. 

He was in an original blister pack with the tall scavenger next to him (Yes, they had been in the lead mountain for that long!).  The packaging went in the bin ages ago, so I can't tell you the exact description.  I can't find any pics of it online and it isn't part of the EM4 or Merliton ranges.

Excellent selection Paul. And your own sculpt is none too shabby!

Thank you. I still can't do faces though, perfect for rag swathed Post Apoc inhabitants!

More brilliance. :)

The conversions are genius, the scultping great and the buggy spot on. What an impressive collection you must have now ;D

We really should see it in the flesh and enjoy a game with it. Any chance of you brining along to a certain gathering in October ??? ;)

Yeah - my Copplestone Fu is quite good - but I couldn't pin-point him either.

Like the new buggy!

My second attempt proved slightly more successful!
