anyone ever seen Eskice miniatures (historical)
« on: December 14, 2023, 12:27:46 AM »
Hello
as title anticipated i would be curious to know if anybody has already ordered 3D printed minis from the above mentioned manufacture..i would be interested to have a try with 1/72 prints (Vietnam and maybe WW2) and some different subjects  from WW2 range to have printed, instead,  in 28mm for my colonial games (French FFL, Méharistes)
so please..how are they and above all, how they compare in size , respectvly with classical 1/72 or 28mm plastic/metal ranges?
many thanks

I'm a Patron and his files are rescalable, they do tend to be a large 28mm. Those Meharistes are very nice looking, possiblt the best of his figures.
Cheers,

Thanks for those good news Poitiers..i was looking since decades for French Méhariste,  as Colonial France is my favourite wargame period and, from the picts,  i 'm almost sure that  those ones are perfect, except the rifle which is not a great issue,  also for early XX century.
Now i've just to order the file and  find a good soul that would print me the figures..
Last questions please..is it easy to slightly downscale them..lets say like Foundry Figures and, above all, is it possible and easy (not for me but for the person who would print me the figures) to pick only, among the set,  some selected subjects to print, in order to allow me to form cohesive wargame units with the poses that i  prefer?
thanks

Yes, each figure comes as camel & rider so you can pick & choose which ones you want.
