Preview, 1:9th WW1 German Trench Raider Bust.

[carl reid]

Hi Folks,

Paul asked me to post some preview pics of a piece I have recently finished for his company ModelCellar.
As you can see it depicts a 1:9th bust of WW1 German Trench Raider.
These picture was taken just prior to completion, he still needed a little cleaning and tidying.

I am not sure at this point when he will be available. But I am sure Paul will post the relative information of price, launch date etc, here and on the Modelcellar website when it's ready.

Hope you like him folks.

Thanks for looking.

Happy New Year one and all, and here's to a healthy, prosperous and happy 2014.

Hi guys ,

Well honestly Mr Reid does an interview for FI and then he shows us this ...he is a star for sure .....like kilsh a good partner for the Brit raider

Looks to be a really great piece ....wonder if its based on any particular image ?

Thanks for sharing Mr R

Thanks Guys!

Glad you like him. He was made to be a companion piece to the British Trench raider made a short while ago.

I have a had a couple of queries about the Kar98A. In answer to the queries, Based on the research and reference I collected. It seems there are many variations of the Kar98A. There are also many battlefield modification's made.
Here is an image hopefully showing the differences. The bottom 3 were manufactured between 1915-1918.

Another classic Carl Reid bust. I prefer this one to Young Miniatures version as it seems to have more character and identity.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for all the positive comments on the German Trench Raider. I sent Carl the images above and asked him to "combine them". ...he did a FANTASTIC job capturing what was in my mind's eye.

I'll have some pre-production castings at MFCA of this one and the previous British Trench Raider:
