Thanks guys.  ;)

Was glad I could get to a little bit of my own stuff.

The count is a conversion. The body is an Obi-Wan from Knight models (which makes him a tall and imposing fellow) and which makes an excellent stand-in for a chapan-clad Turkmen type, the head is a GW Empire knight, and the hat is one I very carefully saved from an earlier Copplestone conversion when I was making my Soviet troops.

That'd be why I'd never seen him before. Great job. What a character  :-*

+1! You're a dab at representing fabric prints.

Ha, well thanks. Whenever I try fancy patterns I worry about them overshadowing the basic shading. Luckily it more or less worked out alright for the Count in spite of some imprefections here and there.

Well, you certainly nailed it.
I would not even attempt it as it would look like it had been finger painted by a small child when I had finished.

He's from Heresy Miniatures, but the Webley is from the pulp weapon sprue from Statuesque/Pulp Alley.
