Love the base, but that's not the face.

Wasn't Arcade based on someone? Malcolm McDowell?

Malcolm McDowell in a generic sort of way, yes. In those days we didn't do likenesses without permission! (Well, most of us didn't, anyway!}

A magazine series focusing on British model builder Martin Bower...

Never heard of "Starguard" before, but very Fireball-XL5-ish indeed! (EDIT - But only from that angle in the above picture... The other photos in the link below show it as a completely different craft)

28 pages for $20+ shipping... I'm sure these are available from the UK for lower prices...

Hey John.When you first drew Sabertooth in Ironfist #14 did he have boots on or was he barefoot.

How do you figure?

Assuming they're proportionate to each other, Giant-Man's feet go below the bottom of the fram while Goliath's don't even reach it.
