Robert Jenkins

Mr Jenkins is a Rhodesian mercenary.  Well, from an alternate Rhodesia in a world called "Merlin".

Merlin is part of the GURPS 4e meta-universe detailed in Infinite Worlds and got a whole book in 3e called Technomancer.

These are works in progress of making a 1/35 scale representation of him.

First we make the body from Sclupey plastic.
Then we add a torso from a Shanghai/Dragon Soviet Spetsnaz kit.
Then the arms and a nice L1A1 from the Dragon Vietnam Weapons kit.
Next we're going to add pouches and do some more sculpting to the snake body.  Pics as the come!

I should probably get ahead of the question.  Why Spetsnaz?  The cut of the blouse and the hat is pretty similar to what the Rhodesians were using.  When you add paint of the correct colors, it blends even better.
