looking for a crossbow

[Braemp]

Hi

I need a crossbow in 54 mm. I´ve searched and the only I found is from EGM, it states 55 mm and it seems to big http://www.elgrecominiatures.co.uk/contents/en-uk/d188_El_Greco_Accessories.html.

Is there others out there?

regards lars

Hi Lars - you're right - our crossbow is for a 1:12 scale bust, way too big for a 54mm figure.
Cheers,
Celine

It shouldn't be that hard to scratch in plastic card.

You could buy this but I would say use the pic as reference to make your own.
The crossbow was a carved piece of wood, you could roll a slice of putty and roughly cut when wet, then sand exactly the same as the original piece . Do the front and handle as 2 pieces
Best wishes, I think you will be ok but happy to SBS you if you wanted.
If you make your own you can scale it to your figure exact
The image below, print to the size you need and gives you the overall scale

Check the piece you need but this will give a guide to the stock

Thanks Celine for clarifying.
Magnus, I'll go for a scratchbuilt crossbow using plasticard. As you say it should not be that difficult, especially since I got this great reference from Graham. It will be most useful. Thanks all.

Best regards Lars
