Female figures

very much appreciated BlackWolf.......
i'd considered Squadron & Hannants but not the mfgs' you mentioned....
thanks for your assist....
if i can pull this off maybe i'll get to post a pic of something.....someday........LOL

Rik,

SOL and Dynasty/Coree have several releases in 35th between them which include figures of gals, although some of them are seated if I recall.

If you do a 1/35 figures search at Squadron for these manufacturers you'll see what's available. I've never tried at Hannants, but you could try there as well, as they'd probably be less hassle for you...

Thanks for bringing this up, I've been reading An Army at dawn about the WW2 North Africa campaign and during one of the Allied withdrawls they describe an scene where a brothel owner manages to hitch a ride for herself and 5 employees on the back of a US M3 Lee tank, while I read that I thought to myself what a great diorama, I love the Lee / Grant but have never had an original idea for how to build one into a diorama. Now I know where to look for the appropriate "accessories".

You might also want to take a look at Michigan Toy Soldiers and Historical Miniatures.

In Tamiya's WW2 Soviet Tank Crew at Rest there's a female crewman, and in Dragon's WW2 Soviet Snipers set, there's a female sniper. Can't think of any other 1/35 female figures from a mainstream injection-moulded manufacturer, though. Those Historex figures are good, though Historex are more like 1/30 than 1/32.

Didn't think that Priesler did bigger than 1/48, but I may be wrong. They do do a range of nude (or dressed in swinsuits) and other females in 1/87. Check out model railway supply sites.

Prieser does make a lot of figures at various scales. You'll have to look through and see if there's anything that fits what you're looking for. Unfortunately it looks like their main site isn't available (?).

Here's a couple of online stores with pictures. Of course there's many more that carry their products.

OnTracks - http://www.preiser.co.uk/
EuroRailHobbies - http://www.eurorailhobbies.com/erh/preiser.asp

Virtually anyone who makes 1/35th scale civilians makes female models as well as male models. Verlinden makes some.

Here's an example:

They make one or two other civilian females, as well as nurses.

Thanks upnorth.......
much appreciated

Check out Hornet & Wolf , I'm pretty sure they make Russian, English and German
