    Pretty certain it's an old Clydecast 90mm piece.
    The style was very much of it's time, being generally less sharp than todays figures.
    That being said this looks a bit over primed, worth stripping and it should bring out a bit more detail.

    Some of Clydecast products were pretty good in their day, a bit like a transition between toy soldiers and the detailed pieces that were championed by Poste Militaire and Almond to name just two.
    Some of them painted up surprisingly well but a lot of the detail like fingernails were down to the painter to realise.
    Tom Park appears to have retired a few years ago and the product line is defunct, but the catalogue can still be browsed.... a trip down memory lane for some of the guys here.
