He started as a rather slight Andreas minature, so following Vermis's lead, I attempted to bulk him out. I should have paid more attention to the shoulders, but....

I totally failed to replicate the braid on the front of his jacket, so hid it under what will be a dashing white silk scarf...

Due to being smaller than Eisenhorn, the 28mm Catachan/Cadian weaponry scales quite well, although you can see I forgot to wash the mini before undercoating...
Thank you Marco

What you've posted is this:

_m (underscore m) that goes before the .jpg filetype has been removed, otherwise it would link to a smaller "medium size" photo.
Now put this inside image tags:

I'll let you adjust your post as appropriate.
Thanks again Marco - my age is giving me away - along with my inability get anything in focus...
He's a little more flamboyantly dressed than your average commisar, but I rather like the look (and it does seem a bit odd that they're all so sombre since within the imperium human nature normally exerts an influence sooner or later). The head certainly works well - gives him a very stern aspect, as does the weaponry.
The flamboyance puts him in Commissar Cain territory - which is good.
looks cool! like the pose.
memo to me: finish own commissar!
