Digital Sculpts - German Officer in Heer Uniform 200730

[Rubicon Models]

I was wondering if we could get A German officer sculpt with a smoking pipe?

Of course!  Will take this into account with our future sculpts!  Thanks!!

Looks good.

The bricks in the wall look a bit strange to my eyes, are they odd continental bricks?

when you do a pack of US ones, do you think a Patton to go with the M20 would work?

Our backlog on digital sculpts had prompted us to order two more workstations... end of March delivery; and hopefully will speed up our work!

Working on hand weapons for our figures!

We have to scale up most hand weapons to 1/53 to make them sturdier to be handled for gamers and to "look compatible" with other manufacturers.

Do you know most hand weapons done by a certain plastic figure manufacturer is averaged at 1/45 in scale??






Enjoy!

The weapons are nice, however, the German soldier sculpt's uniform is incorrect. The pockets should either have the pocket flap scalloped with the pocket pleated, like on your Rommel sculpt, or the pocket flap should be straight across, like the latest sculpt has, but without a pleate on the pocket. There did not exist an issued German uniform in the configuration that your latest sculpt is wearing

Thanks, Hoffmn.  Will check with studio tomorrow!

Have checked original work, we are based on German mid-war tunic.  Seems like the details are almost gone during the 3D print process.  Will look into a possible solution.

NOTE: We needed to "deepen" all the creases and "straighten" the undercuts for mould making.  So will expect some losses of details during the process.


Comments?

Your new digital sculpt looks pretty good for a German infantryman from 1939 through 1941. The same uniform was also seen worn up until the end of the war. Maybe you could make the scalloped part of the pocket flaps just a little deeper

Will see how it goes... there are limitations as to how the moulds are being made.

Looks good ...but would be Great to see some properly proportioned early war Germans in Jack boots and M36 uniform as well.

Very nice sculpture!

The Garand looks rather long, I thought it was under four foot?
