Several years ago I requested of Bernard from Miniprints in Canada an HO figure of an Osprey carrying a fish. At the time he thought it would be too difficult to 3d print, due to the small size of the legs. I was looking thru his online catalog for seagulls and guess what I found? Yup, the Osprey carrying a fish. He also had a nest with another Osprey (mama) resting. I couldn't resist so I bought the set. I added the pole mount. This will go on the Cape & Islands Model Railroad on the Stony Brook Mill scene. Now if Bernard will make my new request, a seagull swallowing a whole herring, I will be able to complete the Stony Brook Mill scene. I made a couple of changes to the Osprey carrying the fish. The fish was painted orange. I wanted it to look like a herring, so I repainted it silver. Also, the fish was mounted sideways. Osprey always orient the fish head first to reduce wing drag. I popped the fish off and reglued it in the correct orientation.
These are awesome!!! Its like Christmas every month when I open the box
Of all the miniprints I've received, the seated skeletons are my favorite, probably because of the high level of detail in such a fragile-looking model. They arrived completely free of any molding spurs, in a hard plastic case with a foam cushion as protection, ready to paint. I was nervous handling them during painting (I used rattle can primer and then rattle can flat white) but they painted perfectly with no mishaps. They are now seated across from each other on tombstones in a weedy cemetery, probably reminiscing about their glory days.
The Weed Wacker guy is GREAT. Just what I wanted for my Little People photography.
Long overdue crew member for my RR. Exceptional quality piece !
Add that final touch with this realistic train figure, he does not disappoint!
Your figures are OUTSTANDING! When I go to your site...its so easy to "add to cart"! Just got the figure of a person hanging off the edge of the layout. Sure adds to details!
Love, love, loved the Mermaids! A must for any water scene or layout, splurge and go for painted option, you will not regret it.
Arrived safe and sound. Making changes to the layout so I have to wait on install so that it will
show to the best
These pole transformers are so awesome I ordered 6 more, they add a nice little detail on my layout
Everything is superb. The detail on all the parts is amazing, will get started on everything one day soon.
Another wonderful exotic land animal from Miniprints that will definitely give your layout a bit of whimsy.
It turned out great. The numerous supports inside were a challenge, but I managed to get them all with a sonic cutter. I like that the material is somewhat flexible, not brittle.
All are very well done and will look good on my lay out keep up with the good work
Absolutely love my tree house. So detailed painted beautifully.
