Some shots of my new 2mm figure range

Here are some recent pictures from my range of 3D printed, 2mm historic wargame figures.

It looks really good but I don't see a link to your website.

Thanks, fixed!

Wow! This is amazing. Stunning. Magnificent!

Even though I’ve never gamed with 2mm models and don’t know if it’s wise to start now another scale, I am really really impressed!

[Forwardmarchstudio]

Thanks!
2mm done with these figures is actually very easy.  They're really cheap to print and easy to paint.  Check out my how-to on creating this table, for instance.

I'm currently printing up a new series of models that will be added to the collection.  These models are all exact 1:1 company scale models, which allow you to recreate exact tactical deployments for every country in the Napoleonic wars.  So far I have the Austrians, French, Prussians, and Russians done in this manner.  Soon I'll have the British and hopefully the Spanish done as well. In addition, I'll be making American Civil war troops available in the same style. 

Here's a French regiment attacking an Austrian battalion of 1200 men, each of whom is represented in the printed-off model:

Looking good.  I would say your french skirmish stands need to be wider with more spread out figures.  I understand they would operate in pairs up to 15 paces apart.

[Forwardmarchstudio]

They are a little bit too dense, you are correct.  I’m going to make s few adjustments.

 I actually have a model that shows the skirmishers in the drill manual deployment you mention  but nobody thinks it’s how it “really looked” so I don’t even use it myself anymore.   I need to make one with half as many figures, in pairs, but not rigidly deployed.

That looks magnificent

Looks brilliant. It has been interesting watching your development of this range and scale.

Thanks!  It's a fun process.  I was most drawn to 2mm because it had become a neglected scale, but I saw that it had a bunch of potential.  Plus, I saw the opportunity presented by 3D printing and CAD to own my own range of miniature soldiers.  It was too tempting to pass up.  Now, I'm getting close to 250 models in the Library, and I have a lot more ideas for things to do in the future.  As I'm getting very close to finishing up the unit figures, I'm hoping to spend more time on the buildings.  I need to do some additional research, but my hope is to eventually have enough varieties of buildings to create truly realistic looking towns and even small cities.  I also have a ruleset that utilize my figures in the works, which I think is just as unique as my range of figures.  I'll hopefully have it out in Beta format before too long.

Jon-
Here are some pictures of the skirmishers in pairs at 15m intervals.





This does seem much more tactical than the other options; the extra frontage would certainly serve to protect the main body of troops.  It also shows the theory that even when in column a battalion reserved the frontage used by it in line; in this case, there is even more distance than would be used in line.  But that makes sense, too.

awsome. So realistic. This city is so real

Thanks!  It’s so easy that literally anybody could do the same thing (and probably better).

Very informative presentation and this scale is giving the opportunity to employ historical Napoleonic tactics!
Also your table setup is so admirable! Like a real air aerial photography! Cheers!
