Re: Field Marshal Games Pieces Project Discussion thread

Well Done FMG!  After being out of town the last month, this is a great joy to see posted upon return.
More +1’s are a coming! and looking forward to the ordering!
Great job!

Very, Very NICE!

I think this will be good competition against the metal 1/285 micro armor, because this is better for gaming and you dont have to glue it together.

Ditto on that!  I think you’ll definitely give GHQ a run for their money.

Thank you for all your effort FMG!

That’s impressive.

I’m very impressed by the level of detail. The smallest details appear to be pushing the .2mm barrier.

Wow!!! that has to be the most beautiful plastic miniature I have ever seen!! I’m telling you right now, if all of them look as beautiful as this…. I will never buy W.W.II miniatures anywhere else!! I’m in for two sets, at least…

As one of the resident miniature painters here I am blown away by this sample…… that’s just amazing

I am gaping at what appears to be the finest plastic tank sculpt I’ve ever seen! Wow… I’m all in.

They look Great! I want to have 2 sets to, because the standard of your’e sculpts is very high, hats off here.

Keep up the good work! :-D

As we say in Norway : jævla bra

Hey Aldertag. How about a  translation?

Sweet … and to think, that’s just the sample!  :D

At the risk of being repetitive… I’m impressed.

I also noted that you switched around the Italian roundel from the pre-fascist Italian/ Iranian green-on-the-outside to the post-fascist Italian red-on-the-outside.  Was this an accident or a deliberate decision?

Once again, you’ve missed my point Imperious…

My point is that the roundel he used caught my attention specifically, because it DIFFERENT from the one used in AAA and on his Italian dice (if you look carefully, you’ll note that the colors are reversed).  I thus wanted to know if this was an accident or a deliberate, conscious choice, and, if the latter, what had inspired this change.  (Although, I was kind of figuring that it in fact was a conscious choice, since he seems to be such an astute and careful sort of guy…)

For the umpteenth time, it’s not so much an issue of ACCURACY for me, so much as it is things having some sort of logic and consistency whenever possible…

We will be using the same ones from AAA…  I just noticed that the one in the image above is reversed.  It was an accident.  I have an image database for AAA and this one was pulled from a AAA Miniatures box.

Hey, don’t worry about it, FMG.  Everyone knows it’s just the [fracking traditional!!] A&A roundel.  Newbs w/ like, 4 posts come on this forum and think they bring up an origional criticism.

@Imperious:

OMFG!!! that is really awesome. Great detail!!!

Bravo!!

Yeah, seriously.  That is realy amazing detail.  Beautiful, in fact.  Can’t wait for the Jap Art.  The AA50 version looks like a Civil War gattling gun.  Pathetic WOTC sculpts.  Bravo, FMG.  Bravo.

Oh, who ever gave FMG 2 smites…you know who you are…and I will hunt you down.  Sleep well, A-holes.

I must say, I was too busy looking at the beautiful miniature in front of me to even notice the roundel…

I do have one question, Is the example miniature a clay mock-up, or is it actually the molded plastic?

The sculpt is a gray plastic.  It is the first test before it goes into the final mould.

Pathetic? Come now. For the most part the WOTC sculpts faithfully reproduce the real units. The AA50 mold looks like a Fiat-Ansaldo M13/40 medium tank to me and not a “Civil War gatling gun”.  :?

Anyway… If this sample is any indication, it’s clear that FMG is going above and beyond the call of duty on this project.
