December 30, 200816 yr The problem is that:- LEGO is the owner of the design - a form costs some thousend EUR Ok I see and understand. But how do shops like BrickArms, ect do it ? Do the use a different thing than a form ? But the new shakos should be available soon, isn't that an oportunity. That's new for me and some good news... but where will they be available (Pick a brick ???) I also had the design already available for 3d print but I didn't test it for copyright reasons and availablilty of the new pirate series. It can be very dangerous that copyright thing... and understand it Andreas. In princible it's also possible to use my french shako as basic and make an shako which comes very nearby. If that's wanted I can make a test version ... Did you already had the time to work on the wall-size ?
December 30, 200816 yr Did you already had the time to work on the wall-size ? Yes, there's already a French Shako with 0,8 wall size ordered. The Ulan makes some problems ... Also the British shako is already based on that design. Let's wait for the results. Back to brickarms and brickforge. I was in contact with both and they use traditional molding forms. The advantage is that they got cheap mass peaces but the molding costs the price. The last info I got from them was more then 10T $. I think there's also a remark in the minifig customization center. The plastic injection itself is afterwards cheap and so it can be reporoduced very fast. Therefor I was searching for a cheaper method, which I found with 3d printing at higher per piece price and the surface looking a little bit grainy. But for some items that's not the problem and if somebody spent time in sanding it can be improved. Andreas
December 30, 200816 yr I only have 16 frenchies you should tottaly make the battle of waterloo. That would be cool!
December 30, 200816 yr Yes, thanks, I am really looking forward to see the finished products in your Bricklink store (which is easier for me to order from). Great work, all the armybuilders are into your debt .

June 16, 200915 yr I think he is unable to send/receive PM's because he hasn't made that much posts yet. I believe after 10 posts you can send and receive PM's. Correct me if I was wrong.
June 16, 200915 yr Correct me if I was wrong. I believe you are right as far as sending a PM to non staff members, but you can always PM a staff member......I think, so don't quote me on that one. Edited June 16, 200915 yr by Broadside
June 17, 200915 yr Author Eurobricks Emperor No no, if you have below 10 posts you can't PM anyone. It's a protection against PM spam we have put in place. But now J.L. Hornblower can send PM's because I've altered his account manually.

July 29, 200915 yr one of the awesomest armies ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wish a had some blue coats and where did you get the yellow musicians
July 29, 200915 yr That's awesome... How long did it take you to build an army like that up? And how much did it cost? where did you get the yellow musicians They're customs . And good ones, at that! Edited July 29, 200915 yr by Admiral M
July 29, 200915 yr one of the awesomest armies ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wish a had some blue coats and where did you get the yellow musicians If you would have read the topic, you would have known that they are customs..
July 30, 200915 yr This is amazing. Looking at these reminds me of the mess at Waterloo I think your drummer boys are brilliant though and the drum itself Your 7th picture and Napolean, His mounted Marshall looks like Marshal Ney
August 3, 200915 yr just wonder. how did you do those flags or banners or what to call them in english, do you find them on internet and print them out small? its a huge army you got there, but i think you have to get some more to take the whole world, youll beat my army but it wont be an easy victory :pir-skull: Its summer here, so thats why i havent been here for a loong time. But i guess nobody noticed that
April 11, 201014 yr Bonaparte, Nice army! You should consider many a battle scene with these figures and your british ones. It would be very nice to see a large battle scene like that. - Teutonic Knight
September 19, 201113 yr If you made a slideshow of these with the 1812 overture, it would look awesome. :cannon: I think it would also look very good if you managed somehow to put a Russian background in there.
September 19, 201113 yr Epic! That's quite an army... Now you just need some british and prussians to fight ;)
