Beautiful figs! And superbly painted.

I'm a potential customer, as I game Russia 1812 in 6mm. Well, truth be told, I'm not gaming just yet, I'm building the armies at present.

Is it too late, in terms of going into production with them, to space them a bit further apart? All the figures I buy in 6mm and 10mm that come in strips are too close together for my purposes, and - please don't be offended, this is only my personal opinion, and as a frustrated figure sculptor myself (did it a little in my teens and gave up) I'm in awe of what you've done - yours appear to be closer together than any others I've seen. Which would be far from ideal for me.

But, my basing gripes aside, those are beautiful little soldiers, and I'd love to have hordes of them invading my tabletop Russians?

Cheers

Seb

Hi Seb..
1. No, I don't space them apart. They stand realistically and cover my needs.
2. Yes, I may create additionally special strips for you, with figures not so close together.
Say your wishes, how long strips and what distances between figures are good? Like Adler do?

Hi Sho

Wow! That's excellent!!

Yeah, the spacing of the Adler figs suits me: I still cut them all up individually (the Adler figures I buy, that is), with jewellers snips, so I can space them out and mix them up as I desire. I'm a control freak!

As to length of strip or numbers on a strip, I really don't know. Whatever works for you, in terms of your production set up, I guess!

Cheers

Seb

Ehm.. If I understand correctly, you don't need strips at all, you need separate figures. Right?

Really nice work

Would you have any comparison photos of them beside Baccus and Adler miniatures?

Cheers

Unfortunately I don't have Baccus and Adler miniatures yet.
But I have agreement, that when I finish my figures, I change them against Baccus and Adler ones.
