28mm

A very quick paintjob (3 hours top) on top of a very quick "sculpt job" too (sides of the pants, helmet and jetpack). The original mini is Baron Von Draken from Westwind. I just love old B movies characters, and this one seemed to fit in...

I gave this figure an eight just for all of the memories it evoked. While I can't heap very much praise on the quality of the sculpt or the paint work I have to say that this model captures the spirit of the Rocketeer. That is something that an awful lot of better sculpted and better painted miniatures fail to do. Nice One.

A cool conversion, for sure! The only things I don't like are the fact that he's not looking where he's shooting, and the odd scroll-like object in his hand, which seems out of place (an American flag would have been awesome). The paint job itself won't win any Demons but for 3 hours it's just fine.
