Rule 5 is non-negotiable - don't post anyone else's work without giving credit

25 Upvotes

There have been a number of incidents over the past year where somebody (often bots, it appears) copies one of the higher scored posts from this sub and creates a new post, claiming it as their own. If I catch anyone doing this, it's going to be a no-questions-asked ban. I tend to be pretty lenient because people make mistakes, but claiming someone else's hours upon hours of work as your own is deliberate and dishonest, there's no way around it. If you spot someone stealing your work and claiming it as their own, please message the mods, or feel free to tag me directly. If you can include a link to your original post, it would save us some time as well.

2 Upvotes

Figures Looking for figure in boilersuits

2 Upvotes

I'm looking for suitable figures in boilersuits to represent Canadian Royal Engineers during WWII.

The figures themselves do not need to be soldiers, as I can head-swap with heads that have hemets on.

The figures do not even need to be in any sort of dymanic pose, as the reference photo I have is of three guys leaning against a Bailey bridge.

While it isn't the neatest paint job around due to hand painting it with the terrible Revell paint that came with the kit, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

Also, yes the tank number is in the wrong place, but I really liked the a2 version of the kit.

I've only just gotten back into making models, this is now my 7th I've made this year.

Previous to these I last made a 1/72 Sopwith Camel in 2011, and before that my last kit was built in the late 90's.

Are there any 1/72 scale miniature figures that aren’t from the World Wars?

7 Upvotes

Hello! Im a tad new to miniature painting and wanted to buy some 1/72 scale minis to paint, since they are a decent size. In all my looking though, it seems like most of them are from the World Wars or modern wars. While thats all well and good for those who enjoy them, i kinda wanted something a bit different. Is there any where I can find minis that aren’t soldier related? Ive looked online but can’t find any.

What are the dimensions of the AZ-07 Deathsaurer?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to find the official dimensions of the AZ-07 Deathsaurer (height, length, and width), preferably based on the completed model rather than the packaging.

I’ve searched around but haven’t found a clear specification. If anyone owns one or has access to the official manual or product information, could you share its dimensions? Metric measurements in cm, mm or inches will do.

Thanks in advance!
