28mm Wood Elf Ranger from Chainmail/WotC

This figure, sculpted by Paul Muller, was two-part, with the second part obviously the left-hand hand-axe. That needed pinning, but it was easy. A good sculpt, if somewhat two-dimensional. The figure is used as a commander in the AD&D-based Chainmail skirmish game (RIP) from WotC.

I decided to paint him as a heavily armoured fighter instead of a ranger, that is, metal armour instead of leather.
