'Features of the Month:
This month showcases something a little different from the previous FOTM's. While most of my
conversion figures are "war related" this one is a character figure-more or less. But first I must give
credit to the designer of this pose-my 22 yr old son Tim. Although Tim is now in his third week of
training at the Montgomery County Police Academy in Maryland he actually came up with this
concept last year and made 6 different prototypes. At the time, we were both reminded of the
character in the movie Jeremiah Johnson which starred Robert Redford. Of course Dad (ME) put
the project on the back burner until now. So I sat down one night recently and put the finishing
touch on these figures. However there is one "concern" in making these figures. That is-- there is
only one "mountain man" head that I like to use so all 6 figures have the same head. On the other
hand, you now have 6 different poses of the same "character figure". You be the judge. ENJOY THE
PICTURES!
