Title: New Copper State Models 1/48 scale figures!
Post by: coyotemagic on October 08, 2016, 09:02:31 AM: These little rascals arrived in the mail about a week ago, but I've been too busy to take any pictures and start this thread. Sorry, Edgar!

You can tell that they've been downsized from the 1/32 scale figures, as the detail is astonishing. Beyond anything I've yet seen in 1/48 scale.
Let me apologize in advance for the crappy pics. I'll take more later.
First, the British Pilot:

Next, the Russian Pilot:

The RNAS Pilot:

Finally, the RFC Pilot:

Now, I have to learn how to paint these things. Any advice?
Cheers,
Bud

Are the ice skates WWI era? ;)
Aren't they chic? Figure skating, maybe? Too tall for hockey.

Just saw this - ordered the Russian for a future Nieuport in Russian colors and the British pilot.

Post by: coyotemagic on February 26, 2017, 09:24:38 AM: You won't be disappointed, Charlie. I can't paint figures to save my life, but these are the best in 1/48 scale I've ever seen.
Cheers,
Bud
