L is for the Last Supper

Something a bit austere for Good Friday, is Good Friday meant to be austere, or is that Ash Wednesday and when was (or is) Ash Wednesday? Given that the Lord (if you believe in him) burnt his own cathedral to the ground at the start of the second holiest of Holy Weeks (and what message did that send his believers - as far as I know the Burning Bush never lost a leaf!) and that the whole holiday is supposed to be a memorial to the slow, painful, death by suffocation of crucifixion; it ought to be more austere in its entirety than the face-stuff it's become? Ascension Day should be the face-stuffing day - Zombie Jesus!

No branding; no pack drill; probably Italian. A larger lump of poured resin or the euphemistic 'polystone' I shot through the window of a furniture store in Aldershot a year ago and forgot to show you last year! The figures were only around 60mm, so quite compatible with a lot of other stuff, particularly biblical figures, not least - of course - those plinth-based Marx TJF keeps finding!
