Andrea Miniatures announced their new line of WWII character figures, Eisernes Kreuz. The first release in this line is German Fallschirmjäger, produced in two scales, 1/35 and 1/16.
Eisernes Kreuz is a new line of WWII character figures developed out of a full commitment to release accurate scale renditions of real combatants. Thorough study of period footage, photographs and documents, so as the use of original uniforms and equipment are just the beginning of a complex process involving advanced modeling techniques including 3D and casting technology which results speak by themselves...

SEK-F001 - Fallschirmjäger, 1940 (1/35)

LEK-F001 - Fallschirmjäger, 1940 (1/16)

Both kits are cast in both resin and metal, and include scenic base.

Looks amazing, but are the images of a painted figure, cgi, photoshop or some combination? I assume we're looking at the 1/16th rendering.

Looking at the shadow of the first image I assume it's a cg render. Still a very nice figure though.

If they can do that level of detail in 1/35th I will order one for sure.

It is a very nice figure. I wish we could get some different poses though. I'm a bit weary of simply standing and smoking or drinking tea or pointing. Still, this is a very nice figure, without a doubt. I just wanted to voice my opinion.

Nice looking figs ! CG or some really talented artist on this one. 20 Euro for the 1/35th, 65 Euro for the 1/16th dude (465Euro for a pre painted one). A bit higher than everybody else but worth it if this a painted figure and not a CG figure. GREAT detail! No confusion, I meant unpainted. It's up to us to do these figures justice ! I'm glad Andrea has finally joined the 1/35th scale club, about time. A great weekend all ! Tom

Its always a good day when another major quality player enters the fray! Now I just have to find a distributor.

i think its painted, the shadow is a photoshop tool using the alpha channel of the figure to create a fake shadow
