 NEWS: SKP - ATS Driver Samantha
A new 1/35th figure from SKP that could come in really useful given some of their recent releases! NEWS: SKP - ATS Driver Samantha Vinnie

Looks a bit Elizabethan, pity there kits don't match the figures.

 Re: NEWS: SKP - ATS Driver Samantha
I like the idea.... the figure is 50% / 50 % to me: Clothes and hair and stance are spot on, the face is reasonable... ( I like the elisabethian !! ) but I can see a lot of room for improvement: the skirt is solid, and a bit bulged at the bottom, the shoes are not well defined, the face could be sharper as could the undercut in the uniform... Improvements that are easier to make on a plastic figure than a resin one!! Excuse me for asking...: what does ATS mean? I am doing my best to try to remember Frerik

 Re: NEWS: SKP - ATS Driver Samantha
Can we expect to see an Inspector Foyle & Sergeant Milner figures to go with this driver figure?  Ally

 Re: NEWS: SKP - ATS Driver Samantha
Ally, I was just wondering the same thing. With this figure and a couple of civilians in suits, you'd just about have it anyway.

 Re: NEWS: SKP - ATS Driver Samantha
There are hints on another site that another manufacturer is bringing out a 'tilly, now with the jarakai/wee friends figs and the 'old pals' there is serious potential for home front dio's.
