Do you know TS-Miniaturen?

 Thomas Ströbelt from TS-Miniaturen asked if I am interested in getting some flags for our 18th century figures. I asked him to show what he is able to do - see the result.

And put your focus on the flags:-) 

And here the next poses of the Project "Hessian/Prussian" infantry.

Kneeling firing, another pose of standing firing, NCOs, Officers and Casualties for the diorama project. Marching poses and a sapper will round them up. Afterwards, when we have some of our spent money back, we will go for artillery and cavalry. 

Frankfurter Bilderhandschrift - Reuss Infantryman 1810

 One of my mates is working on a book on the Frankfurter Bilderhandschrift. 

Maybe you know some of the plates from the old British "Tradition magazine". 

The idea was to produce the "figure for the book". Here the result

I put this file into Myminifactory and try to cover some costs. It is best printed in 54mm and 75mm.

Later I will ask our painter to change the poses into the usual combat- or maching poses. 

Germans in Spain with their ragged cloth from the Frankfurter Bilderhandschrift are a source of good ideas for the future. For example these two guys from the Schwarzburg Contingent

We have seen so many ragged uniform from the French side of the war (El Guil series), but so far Haythornewaith (I hope to prononce it correctly:-)) is the only one who showed ragged British troops. 

Maybe another idea for the future...

Here the next 3D-Masters of our SYW/AWI project

When Patrick printed the charging Hessian Musketeers for me, I painted one as Freikorps Wunsch for my Korbitz project and sent him this very bad photo through WhattsApp. In the middle the printed figure, the other two Art-Miniaturen. 

His answer was, he is thinking about changing his own Kolin project, not using the Art-Miniaturen he has, but our own. 

So we decided to create a complete range of SYW figures. We already have the Austrian Hussars and now you may call it as you want, we have new poses for the SYW, AWI, even some armies of the French Revolution.

We start with simple head conversions into Grenadiers

Next is a firing line in proper regular loading poses, all steps to load a musket coveed. These as Musketeers and Grenadiers too. BTW, the Musketeers don't have a mustache. 

I am not sure, if we should produce them as Fusiliers too, but as for the poses, we will add NCO's, Casualties and a color group.

On the top of the pipeline is now the Artillery and SYW Prussian dragoons. Much more to follow.

The good thing with 3D-Files is, you can print them in any scale you want. 

Compagnie d' elite 3D vehicles and accesories

 My mate Peter reorganized his webshop which you can now visit here

I just got his new Gribeauval material cart, very useful for my French Sappers.

The funny thing in the shop are the prices, on the first view everything for free:-) well, you have to choose which scale you need to know the price.

He is also prepared to take special orders. In the past, I asked him to create some Franco-Prussian war vehicles for us. 

He even offers a painting service for the products!

WW1 Russian command figures

 Roland Kupski painted our new set of WW1 Russian command figures.

Very impressing

New 3D Hessen-Kassel or Prussian SYW infantry

 My mate Markus Gärtner, who has published several books in the past contacted me and wanted to talk about figure production. Together we thought it a good idea to produce "the figures that go with the book".

Markus' favourite subject are the Germans in the American war of independence.  His latest book is on sell with Berliner Zinnfiguren. So far only in German, but I hope they will think about an English version too. 

So, now here having the Hessians published, we wanted to have the figures. Markus himself is a collector of 54mm figures and I told him, the advantage of 3D is, everybody can have them in his favorite scale. 

So here you see our first joined project - Hessen-Kassel Musketeers charging American trenches in the AWI - or as I would say, a counter-attack of the Prussian Freebatallion Wunsch at Korbitz:-)

If you are interested in the figures, you can order them in our shop at Blackwatch
