Josua Lai from Switzerland has yet again produce another wonderful mini-diorama with one of the JSM 1/16^th scale resin frogs. The water effect speaks for itself.

The latest batch of JSM individual 54mm heads are now being released. As many people will recognize, they are all combinations of the existing 3D designs which were released during 2017/18 as busts and figures. They comprise German & French subjects, but with new bare heads for figure conversion.  There are now 19 new heads in total.

I would be pleased for any comments regarding the option of these new heads in the 1:35^th scale. Just send a quick email. Thanks.

Josua Lai from Switzerland has achieved a small, but affective 1/16^th scale mini-diorama with the Sleeping Trench Rat in German Helmet. This is by far one of the best painted JSM rats that I have seen to date. The barbed-wire was made by himself, dried grass and other fibres were used for the inside of helmet and paints applied were acrylics.

The new JSM – French Infantryman Chauchat MG Gunner, 62nd Regiment, 1916 in 1:16^th, 1:32^nd and 1:35^th scales have now been released. The figures have a choice of 2 alternative heads and are supplied with a base (not 1:35^th version) and spare parts for the Chauchat MG. Each figure has a small frog. Below are photos of the painted  1:16^th version by David Lane, unpainted figure and a selection of the 3D design pictures.

The new JSM 1:10th bust – French Infantryman Chauchat MG Gunner, 62nd Regiment, 1916 has now been released. The bust, as the previous two has a choice of alternative heads and is supplied with the usual 6mm diameter buffed brass tube for mounting. Below are photos of the painted version by David Lane, unpainted resin parts and a selection of the 3D design pictures.

David has painted the German Prisoner bust. The subtle application of dirt and weathering on uniform and helmet is particularly well balanced with the sadness and fatigue expressed in this soldier’s face.

David Lane paints the JSM Sapper Stormtrooper. Predominantly oils (W&N) over Humbrol enamels for cloth, oils on acrylic for leather, metal and flesh. For more information on this 1:10^th scale bust.
