James Bond villain Blofeld, played here by the great Donald Pleasance, was in many ways simply ahead of his time. Nowadays his company, SPECTRE, would be regarded as the very model of a modern supra-national corporation what with their Swiss base, tax exemption, bonus structure, bribes and threats to politicians, funding terrorism, disciplinary system and tropical fish tanks.
Oh and their support for less government regulation by interfering busy bodies like James Bond.
I decided to paint my model in a pale blue suit as the flesh colour was a bit insipid on something 28mm high.
The base is from
Gladius Game Arts. I can't remember where I got the model (Copplestone? 7TV? Anyone know?).
