Does anyone recognise this chap?
I spotted this 'spotter' in a Hornby advert in Hornby magazine and he's ideal for my layout- purely because he looks like me (good to have a cameo!) but I have no idea what make he is or even if the figure is commercially available or not.Any thoughts would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Tom

Don't recognise the origins though.
Could be 'shopped' but I doubt it.

If it's 00 size, it's well painted.

Thanks for the reply!
It is 00 scale, I'd thought it might be Photoshopped but hoped not - that would be cheeky of Hornby placing him in an advert!

I can not get a clear image of him but the basic figure is dressed the same but in a different pose.

I'm not in a position to do so at present, but perhaps one of our members may be able to try using an artist's 1mm Indian ink marker, or a OHP transparencies pen to try 'drawing' spectacles on a 4mm figure? That would be one way to do it…..
