Overgrown Jungle Statue and Evil Baron
Every pulp adventure needs a sinister bad guy. The original Orient Expedition had Lord Sam Sinister I believe, who looked profoundly evil with his monocle AND mustache AND hook. I haven't got a clue yet who this guy is, but he sure is mean looking, possibly very rich and dressed to kill.
Also, he is posing before a statue of a dancer deep in some ruined Indian temple complex, which will serve an additional purpose as an Ivory Hunters' Hideout.
The dancer was a pain to make since I really had to dig deep to get all the body parts in light grey. I can't help but feeling that her pose could have been more spectacular, but alas, as minifigs don't have joints this will have to do. At least I managed to get the hand gestures sort of right.
I personally like the niche the best as it's pretty close to the real thing. Also, I might be almost out of dark grey stubs now.
