Mystery Mini 2

My hat off to the first person who properly identifies this old mini. As to the paint job, I did this about 15 years ago with Testor Enamel paint, straight from the jar, with a plastic brush. I painted the eyes with a metal pin stuck in paint. A couple years later I learned about drybrushing and picked him up and dry brushed a little on top. The best thing on him is probably the helmet which is a nice silver with gold trim and little gold rivets. Those enamel paints did have good metalics at least.

Thanks for posting this classic mini. You should send a copy of the photo to the web site "The Stuff of Legends". They are trying to develop a complete list of all minis. This one would really fit in well. http://www.solegends.com/index.htm

Nobody guessed it. This guy is "Gnome Illusionist" from the "Specialists" boxed set by Grenadier. I will be removing the picure soon.
