Space Marine in Mk8 Errant Armour 1

This guy is one of the few Warhammer 40K Space Marines to come with Errant Armour (Mark 8) and is a 1990 sculpt. He’s part number 70106/57 or 070360/1 and was sculpted by Jes Goodwin as per the 1994 catalogue.

You can see Jes Goodwin’s sketch of Mk8 armour in the Index Astartes Apocrypha book (will be from a WD issue somewhere I haven’t found yet):
