Space Marine, Errant Armour Mark 8

This guy is one of the few Warhammer 40K Space Marines to come with Errant Armour (Mark 8) and is a 1990 sculpt. He’s part number 70106/57 or 070360/1. I can’t find a single sculpting credit for him but I’d be surprised if it was anyone other than Jes Goodwin.

You can see Jes Goodwin’s sketch of Mk8 armour in the Index Astartes Apocrypha book (will be from a WD issue somewhere I haven’t found yet):

I painted this chap up as a squad leader for a Tactical squad, and did his left knee in chequered company colours. A WIP of his knee:
