Norbert: Your figures are astounding! Thank you for using your technical and artistic skills to produce these. As soon as someone has painted some of these up, please post the images. I'm in awe!

Very, very impressive! Everyday I am further amazed on how far military modeling has come since my first Tamiya kit in the mid 80's.

An interesting aspect of the approach of just printing and not casting might be that everything is available in any scale? Might it be possible to order, for example, a figure as 1/32 or 1/35 scale?

It has to be said that the 1/72 figures are really so far beyond some conventional figures in this scale, and of course the better the detail, the easier they are to paint.

Yes, it's what I do. So I sold recently a 1/35 deck crew. I also do not need to sale 100 pieces of 1 figures and therefore can expand the choice of figures, even if I'm not sure it will be a big success.
Many thanks for the kind words on our 1/72 figures Matthew

Jason, as Norbert has not yet replied, I can share that I purchased one helmet and one smaller 72 scale pilot as separate items from their website. You have got to see this helmet up close as photos just do not show how nice it is. All the best

No problem Norbert. Glad to share how nice your work is up close! My hope is that you will continue your success and provide many more of these offerings for our hobby. The helmet is great and mine was safely packaged to the US. Much appreciated!

These all look great - too bad I only do German WWII 1/35.

If you ever think about those, I'd really like to see more figures to man trucks, artillery, other support roles. Plenty of figure sets in fighting poses at the moment.

Hi Joy
I saw you already made some suggestion on our FB page
We are open for them, just think all projects need a certain time for research and developpement.

Now ready in 1/48 and 1/72 : soviet tankers and signal corps

Good ideas, also looking how to do a chinook and artillery team preparing to hook a M198.

Hey, Norbert.. I use my Mastercard to buy online.. we don't have PayPal in Egypt.. I know some stores say you can pay through PayPal even if you don't have an account, but that still doesn't work here in Egypt
