Title: All God's Children got guns
Post by: 6milPhil on 25 July 2013, 06:07:18 PM: For over a year now I've been trying to get some firearms made and it's been a slow process, and in the end I mastered them myself. Finally I've got the master casts back, I'm happy with all of them, except the Enfield, but the bigger than actual size and poor quality photo doesn't help. What do you think? :?

Triple barreled elephant gun, side by side shotgun, over and under shotgun, Enfield SMLE, Thompson smg with drum mag.

Lewis Lmgs with spare drums.

These will be sprued up and sent for casting as soon as I can afford it, and after I've got a couple of jobs on the bench finished.

Unfortunatly I have to agree with you on the Enfield. the angle of the stock is weird

Do you have a size comparison shot of the Lewis guns? I bought a couple last year, but they're way, way too small, probably even on the small side for 25mm...

I would agree though with the comment on the SMLE. The length of the over/under shotgun looks a bit short compared to the stock, at least if I compare with my Beretta 686 ???

Sure, bear in mind these are all pre-production, and the one I've plucked out of the bag for this photo is skewed...

Sure they'll be available to licence, once I've had a production run. PM if you want...

Post by: mysteriousbill on 26 July 2013, 05:39:41 PM: Will the guns be on a mixed sprue or will each sprue just have one type of gun?
Title: Re: All God's Children got guns
Post by: 6milPhil on 27 July 2013, 06:01:40 PM: Haven't quite worked that out yet, either way it won't suit some I imagine - so I' may well sell them seperately like the guns I already offer.
