Great progress in this project! The first drafts look in fact very uniform, but now the variation in the figures makes them very life-like and convincing.

I like Remko's suggestion too; I would be tempted to convert one of these and give her a broom, turned right way up and used as a broom rather than a weapon. That would be a very nice accessory figure. Actually a broom might be a more appropriate weapon for a Paris mob than a scythe.


There will be more weapon choices, The scythe is perhaps better for peasant uprisings during earlier decades or centuries, so I thought it might work for that, and I've always associated the scythe with these type of popular uprisings. The broom variation is a good idea.

Thank you, facial features are not really seen in resin 3d printed 1/72 figures, but shapes of face and body as well as different heights do add some variety.

Head on a pike is a bit on the gruesome side. You might have to wait for the Linear-A version of the Citizen Uprising to get that.

Hello Mummy, it probably won't be in our assortment but if you really want it you can make a special order when they are released. Swords and pistols are great ideas for arms for the revolutionaries.

We're working on some more variations in headgear and clothing, hopefully we will also see more poses with the ladies.

He he, fantasies go wild. Probably most of these ladies just looked like an angry lady. Let’s imagine our wives when we return home after a late nite out boozin’

I start wondering how this technique works. Do you use photographs or real 3D scans as master?
Thanks for return

No 3D scans, just modelled after general looks of how women dressed in that time.
