So everyone has seen the painting based on eyewitness accounts of the Comanche at Plum Creek wearing a blue long tailed coat and a top hat, and carrying an umbrella.

As it happens both Conquest and Gringo40s make him, and I have both. (And maybe another figure line includes him?)

But I do not need two of them! The Conquest guy (smaller) has the umbrella cast in hand, just glue the open canopy on, so he will be painted as per the illustration you see if you do a search for Plum Creek.

The Gringo has an empty hand so I am giving him a staff of skulls, and he is wearing a green coat. He actually looks a bit like Baron Samedi the voodoo dude. (I know how to say voodoodude but it is hard to know when to stop.)

Both are works underway and I will try to post a pic when done.

Anybody else have multiples of this character?

You mean Buffalo Hump? (Fun fact. That name is a bowdlerization of "His erection will not go down.") Yeah, I have both too. 🙄

I also have several Joseph Brandt.
3 Magua.
8 Long John Silver
6 Blackbeard

This lunacy is unlike collecting multiple Napoleons, Washingtons or Robert E Lees. One can do that standing on your head in an afternoon.
The others take work! Along with too much time on your hands.
