Figures in focus
elcome to the third edition
of our annual ‘Figures in
Focus Special’ where we
once again consider things
without wheels and tracks! Without doubt
the figures and bust genre has become one
of the growth areas of our hobby and more
and more new manufacturers are coming
into the marketplace, and bringing with them
some fresh and innovative ideas and designs.
Perhaps one of the newest and most exciting
aspects of the past year has been the advent of
3D printing, and already we can see the fruits
this new state-of-the-art process from folks like
Live Resin. One area that has seen a renaissance
is that of 1:35 figures and figure sets, and in
plastic we have to thank the likes of MiniArt,
ICM and Masterbox, who always seem to come
up with a ‘diorama in a box’! Add to this the
plethora of cast resin figures and sets from
established favourites like Bravo 6,
Alpine, Stalingrad, Tommy’s War,
and new manufacturers such as
Paracel and the like. To paraphrase
the words of a former British Prime
Minister ‘we have never had it so
good’! I hope you enjoy the mix
we have for you this month as its
not all figures and I am pleased to
welcome back Ozgur Guner with
his E-50 build and Michelangelo
Sicilia with his Sherman and
new contributors Javier
Redondo, Luis Pacheo, Paul
Webb, Simon Antelmi and
Carlos Asensio.
