You can then give those resin models to a (metal) miniature manufacturer who will make a master mould of them, in low temperature silicone and subsequently cast metal "masters", these are then put into a production mould and metal miniatures can be produced which will allow a substantial number to be produced.

This is a small parenthesis. Im posting it here because its thematically related to the set of 10 bodies.
I was commissioned to do 4 bodies of Guardes Eccossais. These are already off to a casting service to be produced in resin for the customer. He kindly allowed me to make them available commercially, so that other people can enjoy them too. From my part I think that its only right to hold these 4 back abit and make them available further in the future, so that he can be the first who has them.

Part of the same commission was the conversion of a Perry head in order to represent Arthur de Richemont



A fury fancy hat was made from Green Stuff and a French Marshal's baton with a tiny fleur de lis  was made with procreate (that was what I had closer at the moment lol). The hand with the baton was made to fit the Perry mounted men at arms, hand socket. The client will glue it to the already prepared plastic body. I just put him together with abit of blue tack for display reasons.

I am responsible for commissioning the torso for the Garde Écossaise.  I also plan to use them for Breton Garde Ducale in their natty livery of black, white, and violet.  And because Yannis is so talented and great to work with, I have commissioned additional torsos in kneeling and bending-over poses for crossbowmen, and more advancing torsos wearing livery jackets for greater variety in late 15th century armies, particularly French and Burgundian ordonnance.  I am not sure when these will all be available, but it has rekindled my excitement for this period.
For a good time, visit...
