hello all,
Thanks for your reply.
Sorry for the confusion. I mixed the scales.
I was taking a shortcut to my initial findings when I was looking for some minis to start wargaming (boardgame).
I planned to go with very small minis for a lot of good reasons.
6mm soldier minis were quite OK for that.
I could accept to associate them with memoir' 44 tanks which are 1:160 and which are usually compatible with 8mm-10mm.
The idea being to have the cheapest solution (a box of memoir' 44 has unbeatable price for plastic tanks: 48 tanks for ~50€).
Until I discover 3D painting.
I guess and I hope that with 3D printing I can easily gather small armies with minis I like most for cheap.
@dragoman: thanks for your detailed reply.
I was afraid I had to create all minis by myself
It takes time, requires time and I hoped I could reuse any model available for free on either sketchup or whatever DB and convert it to print it.
I've checked your shop and I agree it's more or less what I'm aiming at.
Your models are very effective for small scale and very convincing, at least on pictures.
And the prices seem correct, compared to some other shops were the printed models would cost more than what can be found in standard minis shops :/
I wonder if making such minis would require less efforts than trying to convert complex models found for free on sketchup.
I need to browse a bit more to see what kind of models I could gather for which price.
At last, for information, the types of minis I like most are the ones found in those games:
- rivet wars
- dust tactics
- at 43
I like to have infantry with AMP suits like in avatar or tacarms like in AT43, coupled with some mechas and tanks, in a old-fashioned or cartonnish style.
But looks like very difficult to design
