This guy may have been the first Chronopia miniature I ever bought - I originally based him to be a Chaos Demon prince in Warhammer Fantasy Battle, but then I picked up the Chronopia rulebook and eventually rebased him with a deceased Vulture Clan Crossbowman on the base.

When I worked at the local Comic Shop, I would usually have a "Featured Game" of the month, with some sort of monthly contest (and usualy a month long 10% discount on the game).  During the month when I had Chronopia as the featured game, the contest was to convert a Shadow Stalker.  Winner got a free copy of the Dwarven Labyrinth book.  There were only a cople of entries, and my friend Jason submitted this one (which won the contest), converted out of a Reaper lizardman and lots of spiky Dark Eldar bitz.  There are, sadly, lots of fingerprints in the putty, but whaddyagonnado?  I painted it and used it for ages.  There was one game where he jumped (or fell?) off of a 2" cliff face, and rolled a critical armor failure and died from the wound... for years we joked that he'd fell on his keys.

I was able to buy the official Shadow Stalker, and I love the model, but I've never gotten around to painting it, so on those rare days when I dust off my Chronopia army to play a game, I still use this fragile little guy.

I like the shadow stalker, save for the finger prints, you should be able to get rid of them with a bit of sand paper, then just paint it over again.

The Dusk Realm Demon, looks nice as well.
