Prototypes for sizing. Last stage before mold making.    Still taking suggestions for distribution of bonus figures: Sapper, ADC, officer and medic. |

Nice to see these guys progressing at last. To my knowledge the Prussians did not have sappers in their battalions as standard. Engineer units were allocated depending on requirements. Extra officers are always useful. Best wishes, Chris

Still too big. You have sized to the top of the headgear, when you should have sized to eye level.The Landwehr figures appear much taller than the Line Infantry.

Hello,
Do not forget that the average European of this time was shorter than those of today due to malnutrition, illness etc.
Best wishes,
Chris

They look very good, in terms of size, I agree with the earlier posts that they are too big compared to the line figures with them in the third photograph and to scale them to eye height, not to the top of the hat and make sure the muskets are the same size would be best. Jim.

The problem I jhave got is that I will have to buy both sets because I want to have the officer pose from the Action set to lead my marching Prussians. Probably my new favourite figure pose ('til the Marching French hit the streets)

Goal has been reached. Crowdfunding will be closed in a week or so to allow any others to obtain bonus figures. Thanks for your support!

Those figures look like they will be a very good match for the Prussian infantry.
And I LOVE the bonus figures, is that a particularly nasty scalpel the medic is holding?

These guys look fantastic. They are from these shots, easily the equivalent sharpness of metallic products. The poses are lovely and useful.
Please can they be expedited quicly?
Best wishes,
Chris

Yes it would be great if hat could fast track these Prussians to make up for the loss of the peninsular dragoons to 28mm, give us 1/72 nappy fans something to look forward to

Hi Hat team, The Prussian's are coming along very nicely now the size problem seems to be sorted I trust the knap sacks will also be resized and any missing bayonets fixed too, it would be nice to see the detail more clearly the white test castings do not show this up very well, could I suggest a quick coat of ink wash as used in the link below and finally the bonus figures are looking great I would love to see them side by side with the rest of the Prussians to see how they match up. www.plasticsoldierreview.com/Review.aspx?id=622 If anyone else want's to participated in the crowdfunding and get some bonus figures or want's to increase their order now could be your last chance. |

The Prussian Landwehr sets are estimated to be finished by the end of June. Each crowdfunder can pick one bonus figure per set by e-mailing to the original e-mail address (please don't post your choice here!). You can pick all the same figure. Or we can pick the bonus figures for you.  |

That's an excellent way of distributing the figures.
