We are a group of Enthusiasts from all over the world, mostly Germany, who create historical battles in scale 1:72.
As we do this since more than 10 years we thought it is time for our own blog.
Being a historical enthusiast I wanted to fulfill my dream of producing my own figures in this scale too. So I started working with several sculptors to produce exotic figures in 1:72 which I fear nobody else would bring on the market.
Five minutes ago Ingo sent photos of medieval masters he made. I have to check if they are historical correct, but maybe someone is interested in them. Ingo doesn't know if he should cast them and maybe will sell the masters directly.
Well, in the meantime I had the time to have a closer look at them. The helmet is late, more middle 15th century. The armour is a mix of middle 15th century and earlier versions. In my eyes too early. To have chainmail attached to a cuirass is something that wasn't common on an archer.
So for me as a purist I would take one or two but no bigger numbers. I do not know how others think. For him he has to sell up to 60 figures to cover the costs of the mould. And I fear this wouldn't work.
These figures don't look bad at all! I would ask it on Benno's figures forum. They will give you an honest answer ;-)
