I recently found a lost sprue in my unpainted pile, so I assembled and painted the figure.

Space Mechanic

I'm calling it 'Space Mechanic', but I'm hoping someone out there can identify it for me.

Space Mechanic

The figure consisted of body and separate right arm, plus the base. Gluing the arm on was a little tricky, as there was only a tiny contact area.

Space Mechanic

I have no idea how this figure ended up in my unpainted pile. Free figure with a magazine? Free sample? Free hand-out at a show?

Space Mechanic

I decided her outfit was a uniform, and painted it with basecoat, highlight and wash.

Space Mechanic

The tool was painted metallic, highlighted with a silver permanent marker, and shaded with an armor wash. (Is that thing hanging from the wrench supposed to be a toy?)

Space Mechanic

For secure storage in magnet-lined boxes, I glued a steel disk under the base.

Can You ID This Figure?
