Thanks Wesley. Actually, my expenses at Sculpteo are far below the price of a 3D printer. Especially considering those small objects I design require a HD printer, which is very expensive!

Arnaud, these are all so beautifully done...the drawings by themselves are masterpieces!

.....your happuri mempo reminds me of Mifune! (if you make one for yourself, what playmo colour would you recommend? I think red would be awesome!
.....I must watch Mifunei again and set up my PM samurai war shelf (all taken down and in boxes because we are painting our ceiling)

I think a dark lacker red would be awesome. Or black lacker. When I did my research, the first answers were Toshiro Mifune with the happuri. I designed something between his and another picture with the mempo seen from two angles.

will we be seeing body armours from cowabounga next? ;D like this one that Mifune is wearing....its generic enough for ancient chinese too...not sure about european ones but would be very playmobil if it can be swopped from theme to theme...then maybe you'll need a 3-D printer if customisers need your help to build armies ;)

Hey buddies!
Here's my latest batch. I don't have much time to paint them these days, so there's only a few.

absolutely stunning custom 3D work  :o
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:
