Hello
My friend Luc bought some minis, and can't remember what was this men.
I think he's carrying a flamethrower, but what's in his hands ?  :-\
( sorry for the bad quality, we were in a hurry )


( unfinished painting, as you guessed)
Thank you !

From the figure I have I'm sure it's the 'gun' of the flamethrower. Hope this helps?

ronan

That's what I thought, but we found it "strange". We were wrong,
Thank you !

Yep, definitely a flame thrower.

The 'gun' part is quite basic on the real one, so the model is fairly accurate



Though IIRC the figure is carrying rather across his body, rather than pointed forward like in this photo.

Probably accounts for his scorched nether regions.  :D
