Masterbox 1/35 "Attack" 8th Pennsylvania Figures painted

[Peapot]

Hello again to all and I hope you are all having a good new year
These are the second box of 1/35 figures from Masterbox I have done, the last set I posted here for criticism and they stirred up a debate about scale etc.
I still say they are quite a bit smaller than 54mm even the Shenandoah 54mm ACW figures, I have many a manufacturer of 54mm models here and all are way larger than these.

Anyhow these were again very fiddly to build, pin etc but I am happy with the end result.
As for how they will end up in Diorama I am not sure yet, as I would like other figures to be used on it but cannot find any to scale yet.
Pictures are not the best and all painted in Acrylics.
More pictures etc can be found on my Blog...

Very well done. The horses look great and I like how you handling of the blues. I had wondered what these figures were like. Thanks for posting.

its a shame they are smaller than 54mm scale, but they still are very good, and you have painted them very well / badger

I've had a soft spot for this set, great action poses, nice painting, check the website below.
I've seen these used in a vignette with the Shenandoah range as well on the Masterbox website and the size difference wasn't that noticeable.

Thanks for comments,

Yes Zane I had seen that Diorama and have Shenandoah figures, which don't suit the scale in my critical eye.
Thanks Michael

these are sold as 1/35th figures and so will never match up with 54 mm figures but they still represent great value for money at about £12 , you would have had to spend around £120 to get three mounted 54 mm metal or resin figures to produce this diorama . Lets hope Master Box produces some Confederate figures in the future to go with this set .
You have produced a great set of figures , can you post some more pictures when you have mounted them on a base so we can see them altogether

Hey mate. I know I've already posted on these but after coming back and looking at the he pics a second time I was absolutely taken with them again. Superb paint work. These are definitely on my want list.
Can't wait to see them all based up.
