    Hello folks,
    I am happy to post these news here.
    The figures are in 3D, they could be printed in various scales ( 28mm/1:72/40/54...)
    I am waiting for a batch of figures i have ordered and as soon as i get them i will post my work.
    The owner's name is Oliver , the company is located in Germany and you can find it on facebook, he is always ready to answer any questions/ concerns and very helpful.
    Here is the link: bulletproofminiatures.com

    Cheers! received_373932149893218.jpeg

    I just contacted them the other day to inquire about woodland indians they are going to produce.Unfortunately the sculptor is tied up until at least the end of June so it will be a while for them.The Compagnies Franches de la Marines above are very nice but a little too properly uniformed for my tastes.I like the more frontier/hybrid dress that many of the soldiers wore.

    I love them to be properly uniformed, the others are nice butni think more for individual or few pieces, lile a skirmish in the woods or "ambuscade"/scaramouche in the woods, nonerheless , they are beatufil uniforms.
    The advantage of these pieces is that, like i will, i can ged rid on the anchor on the cartridge box and recreate any of the regular infantry units.
    Oliver (owner ) is very approachable and always open to suggestions, it is a company that itnis just starting and that always is costly, but i am full confident he will come upnwith more and more figures, he is finishing the highlanders at the moment.
    Cheers!

    When I contacted him about the indians he was very quick to respond.This is a company to keep an eye on.What scale did you get? I may get a set of 1/72 scale as I just got this very nice set of indians also from Germany.

    Hey Marco, Campaign dresses for the Compagnies de la Marines are planed. Also various other (FIW) French and British units are in progress. Some Highlanders (Blue Bonnets/Grenadier Caps) will be ready in a few weeks.
