The other Head Lui66 sent me, now on a Cotswold Body. Melvin "Melbourne" Walker. An Aussie through and through, but don't call him Melvin, call him Melvin, and you die.

His kitbashed uniform is comprised of spare parts (in contrast to Hamish Kingston, who's uniform is bought and gifted).

The Jacket, Hat, and Flamethrower is from the Timeless Joe Australian Jungle Fighter, which I already own one of but bought a second specifically to custom make the GIJCC Foreign Adventurer . The green Trousers are Vintage Joe, the boots are VAM40 (two rights, if anyone has two lefts and would like to trade one let me know  Very Happy ), and the brown belt is from Cotswold. (The Australian Jungle Fighter shorts are being used by my GIJCC Mike Power)

Here he is so you can see the Cotswold body, he's rather ashamed of it, but it works pretty well, so the ozzy git can get over it Laughing. In uniform, he stands rather wonky, but that could be from two right boots or the type of cord Cotswold uses.

For his hands, same story as with Hamish Kingston, I had to drill out the Cots forearms, very carefully (Don't tell Miss AY I did something that stupid), now they fit perfectly, nice and snug, and no flexibility has been sacrificed.

In the Spring and summer. He's more a "warm-weather" type.

Great looking figure Ian. All you need now is for the snow to take off , the sun to come in & adventure time can begin.
