Hi guys, I hope you can help me. I am interested in painting and converting some Australian Army figures in 1/35 and 1/16 scale.

My biggest problem is finding weapons, apart from the odd SLR and F1 SMG. Does any one out there have
1/16 or 1/35 owen gun and F88 Austeyrs?

Cheers

My name is Phil, you asking about weapons carried by Australians, l'm doing the sculpting of the 120mm (1/16th) figures for OZMOD SCALE MODELS as the figures come on the market so the weapons will be avalible, l'm currently working on an Owens all but finished, we have a 303,a Bren,a Lewis, SLR, more modern weapons will appear as things move forward...

Thanks guys, I have just got back into military figures and armour after a short break of 15 years. I still have a very good collection of unmade kits and figures, which I am dusting off. Out of interest, I have an old 'new order kit', wich has a well detailed SLR, and a 'tie pin' of an Austeyr which I think works out to 120mm scale. If you need these to wrk on future projects let me know for casting etc.

Cheers
