10 Years On - A Modellers Tale - Part 2

Figures

I built a lot of figures over the period many of which I converted for the Somme dioramas and I built my first stand alone chap on his way along the Kokoda Trail. Maybe not a show stopped but I like him a lot.

When I was building the Somme dioramas I came across 2 figures from AC Models which I thought would suit. I saw them advertised as 1/35 scale but they were in fact 54mm figures so ended up getting built as stand alone chaps.

Happily several manufacturers have now started producing 1/35 scale World War One figures. In plastic MasterBox Ltd, ICM and Tamiya all have new options in the WW1 era. In resin we have see new offerings form Resicast, D Day Miniatures and Stalingrad, which should be welcome additions for many. Below are some pictures of these fairly recent releases I'm working on for future projects.

Happy modelling to all.
