Modeling Subjects Figures and Misc.

I am looking to find 1/35 scale US or Canadian artillery figures suitable for an m198 155m towed howitzer(Early Version) in order to complete a diorama. In addtion, shells, casings, boxes, etc. that would also be suitable. I am not a scratch builder, so hopefully I can find something out there.

thanks

I don’t know bud. You might have to convert some modern US marines or Army infantry. Why do companies produce an artillery kit without a crew? There’s a bunch of them that do that.

Shapeways has a set of figures in cold weather gear that are 3D printed. The company has always provided me with excellent service, so I can recommend them with a clear conscience.

thanks for the tip. Figures look pretty good for what I want. A little pricey. Will consider it all.

ya, why dont they? Seems like a logical thing to do. I was hoping to stay away from conversions, but seems to be that or finding a pricey set. Appreciate the response.

AFV Club makes a set of 8" & 155mm artillery ammo. Hobbyfan makes a set of Vietnam artillerymen for a 105mm gun that could be modified to more current looking Redlegs.

i need some 1/35 modern 105 ammo boxes and rounds too. do not need the figures. may need some helmets, really any helmet will do as long as they can fit on a velociraptor head.
