Skill with flats still amazes me.
Does the pF community know : Were the 95th Rifles a popular subject for modeling before the TV series Sharp?

Airfix released a model of the 95th Rifleman in the mid '70s in their popular range of 54mm plastic figures (I still have one I made back then, jumping a wall, in a shoebox stored in the loft of my brother's garage). Below's one somebody else made. There were probably others available, before and since, from the manufacturers of metal figures too. The TV series first appeared in the early '90s I believe, and has no doubt increased interest. I really like the flat from 2D Figurines, it looks great painted up, what scale is it?

 

[Briank]

The figure is 120mm x 90mm and is part of a on going set of British Napoleonic

Brian,
That's a neat idea to display your finished flats in the picture frame, it must save on shelf space too. The Rifle Brigade group is a good size for a wall decoration (even if I never get around to painting it), are these guys in white metal?

[Briank]

Yep white metal

 

[Plastic Max]

Cool, will put it on the wish list, thanks again Brian.

 

[Briank]

Wish list! I got one of them, I think we all have

 

[Briank]

The 95th or have a go at the 60th
