I am a big fan of the plastics, but have recently started buying Francsco's Franznap range more and more, as I find his work very clean (he obviouslystarted out modifying Italeri figures and horses). I have found Newline to be too small (20mm rather than 1/72) so have use SHQ/Kennington for command figures ec, and they fit my plastics really well. So I guess the Art Miniaturen must be slightly smaller than a lot of plastics - especially the Zvezda which are giants :-)Marc the plastics fanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17126208985662052998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971873864850891688.post-48424266025888589972016-07-18T10:54:07.468-07:002016-07-18T10:54:07.468-07:00I do have a fairly large quantity of plastics but ...I do have a fairly large quantity of plastics but have gradually switched to 20mm/1/72 lead. But manufacturers of 20mm lead are thin on the ground. Hat have some good products and also some poor ones. Zvezda have some excellent 1/72 Napoleonic sets, especially the French and Russian artillery. Newline infantry and Art Miniaturen cavalry sit well side by side. Overall though I am trying to phase out my plastics unless they have a role e.g. Zvezda's French light infantry painted as Saxon light infantry…BWAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11562332331695483436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3971873864850891688.post-24625902164671480312016-07-18T06:00:31.037-07:002016-07-18T06:00:31.037-07:00Only just found your site (following a link from G...Only just found your site (following a link from General Picton's excellent blog). I am looking forward to reading through all of your old posts, but I have a quick question - do you use modern plastic 1/72, or do you prefer to concentrate on newline/Art Minaturen? And if so, is there a philosophy at work - I would be interested to know.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />MarcMarc the plastics fanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17126208985662052998noreply@blogger.com
