A new 1/35th figure from SKP that could come in really useful given some of their recent releases!

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

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 :?

Can we expect to see an Inspector Foyle & Sergeant Milner figures to go with this driver figure? :)

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.

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.
