This is a 1/16 Gurkha made by Miniature Alliance for their Dog Tag range. A lot of these figures were sculpted by the great Calvin Tan, as I suspect the case is here. I've made versions of this figure a couple of times but never been very happy with the results, so....
A combination of resin and metal parts:

The resin is nicely done, but has large casting blocks and is subject to pinholes. The white metal is truly nasty - why the left arm had to be cast in it is a mystery to me. A lot of work will be required to put this one together.
The base includes a bollard for him to sit on:
