What about some new navy deck crew ? new project


Recommended Posts

Many thanks, and yes, there will be more to come

The 1/32 and 1/35 USN figures are now to my taste, and wil join the webshop

I made a first testshot in 1/48 and 1/72 inside the testrun#19, with no adaptive change rom 1/32 scale

here in 1/48 :

and here the whole family :

in 1/48 and 1/72, figures still need some details adaptations, was amazed that the microphones survived.

More to come

Ok those are amazing and seeing I am a 1/48 guy I am in for a set at least. Although I do have a Hasegawa A-4 that may be wanting a ground crew so maybe one of each scale? Hmmmm decisions are tough.

Norbert, any plans for future crew? I am thinking some guys leaning on the mules would be a nice scene.

Thanks for producing these. Very much appreciated and in awe of your talent.

Wow, those are truly amazing. I will have to grab a set once they do become available :thumbsup:

Also, as you said the crew around aircrafts is endless. Pilots checking his weapons load while doing preflight, ground crew doing last minute check, ground crew removing the flags or arming the weapons before take off. It is indeed endless venture for a resin figures ;)

Many thanks for your interest. They are available at www.reedoak.com

So far, figures are delivered with all holders (sprues) removed and cleaned.

We are thinking to offer the same figures as an option with the printing holders in place at a discounted price, despite they are for some of them on fragile areas, like microphones, gun nozzles, fingers, depending to the figure pose.

Hi

Having an exhibition in 1 week, I decided to try to paint some of my figures

I'm like some others here, not a great figure painter...

undercoat tamiya white with 70% alcohol, face and hands are oil painted

I could dry the paint in some minutes : Oven at 100° Celcius : the material withstand that.

humbrol enamel plus some oil paint in order to play with the shades :

Now, Have to look how I will patch it, then I can apply a matt coat

So this is $83 worth of figurines (3), Am I seeing this right?

Hi

These are 1/48, 3x15 euros = 45 euros, so about 50.00 in US$ plus shippment

minus 20% if you use the option keepsprues, so around 40 plus shippment

I beg you ask for 1/32 with material holders removed by us, in this case it's probably around what you said with shipping costs.

Added on reedoak.com a new standing deck crew

and a seated deck crew, but this one will not be compatible with aircraft cockpits with console between the two legs.

For a change with seated pilots or to place elsewhere.

Hi

Deck crews were scaled down to 1/72, shwn here with the keepsprues option.

Wantes to push a little the keepsprues option forward, as it is less than 20% of my orders, and it gives me more time to work on new products

Happy new year

Norbert
