Modern children in 1/35?
Posted by dirkpitt77 on Tuesday, November 19, 2013 7:26 PM

Wasn't sure if this should go in Armor or Figures, but anyway here it is.

 Looking for 1/35 scale modern children  for a "playing on tank" diorama. Anybody got any leads on a source for figures like that?

Master Box has some child figures in their World War Two sets. The figures can be easily updated with Moliput fine grain .

I dunno. I'm still in the planning stages and considering using adults instead. I'm just not real into having to modify figures if I can avoid it. I'll check those sets out though. I might change my mind again. Thanks for the heads-up!

could you use 1:48 adults so they look small?

Look at Preiser figures. They are primarily oriented towards railroads and make loads of civilian figures including children.

The proportions of human bodies is significantly different between adults and children. 1/48 scale figures of adults look like 1/48th scale adults, not 1/35 children. These Doug's Originals are the closest you might find: available at http://www.milminwh.com/images/Dougs%20Original/35001.jpg

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.
