This alien is the SHM18 Horansi from the Alternative Armies SHM range. I've mounted it on a steel washer as I do with most of my human-sized 15mm figures.
It reminded me of the Amanaman alien from Jabba's palace in Return of the Jedi, so I've adopted a vaguely similar colour scheme on the body.
The skin was painted with my 35 year old pot of GW sunburst yellow. I gave it a sepia wash, then a bone drybrush to add some final highlights. Some GW goblin green was added on the back of the head and along the back of the arms. This had a black shading wash, then some lighter green highlights.
The clothing is Vallejo beastly brown with a sepia wash, highlights are the brown with a little khaki mixed in. The various pouches are Vallejo charred brown with a black ink wash to differentiate them from the clothing. Although you can't see them in the photographs, there's a pair of red eyes up there under the head cowl.
This is a characterful alien for any starport or alien settlement. Although there is only one pose available, you could easily modify it by adding weapons, a staff or flag to the arms. The arms would probably bend into a different pose fairly easily too.
