maybe these hats will come out as Fi?ures someday but some of us wont need to wait that long.
and Arnaud (Cowabounga), these rattan-like surface on your 3D prints are just so correct, thank you once again! ;)
-
Wow! They look like Yuan Brothers (元小二，小五and小七) from the Outlaws of the Marsh (水浒传).
Fantastic!

thanks LHHH!
gotta check "Water Margin"s Yuan brothers (LHHH is saying 2nd, 5th & 7th brothers)
-
Wonderful! Are these custom hats you made?
-
starhorse: 3D prints by Cowabounga (one of our PF moderators)....he's rather quite these couple of days...maybe he's busy printing life-size pistols now :P
-
whats the price of these prints?

gifts from Cowabounga...and priceless to me (for his painstaking planning and prototyping)
-
Awesome!
You painted the hats?
-
Exciting. Are these prints coloured? :o
-
thank Tahra!
...sprayed (this is the lightest of my 3 brown sprays...and I didnt want to invest in brown sprays because I never thought there'll be that much to spray :P) ...painting would have reduced the wickerwork/patterns
-

hey Micheal, white (think they are almost always white...at least those I've seen but there could be other colured granules...but white would be the most conveninet(neutral) conlour except that its very hard to see ;)
-
very nice, Cheng
-
I like them very much and especially their hats. :love: Excellent job cheng well done!!
-
Hey Cheng! I'm not quiet, just busy, but whenever I get a chance to connect on PF, I check for Mod School and then straight to your posts!
The concentric circles on the hats are the construction lines left by the printer. Actually, Jingasas are the only items where these grooves add to the realism. :-\
I love all the fine details you added and specially the face of the right hand guy! He looks like he's wearing a theater mask!
May I ask what material you used for the belts?
gifts from Cowabounga...and priceless to me (for his painstaking planning and prototyping)
You did actually help make those as accurate as possible, thank you.

thanks Luis & George!
and Arnaud...those are original PM judoka belts...now I'm searching for the white ones (from the 'Masai' chief) ;)

Now I feel stupid! Always looking for something special, and I miss the obvious!!!! I thought maybe we could fit a katana through the loop of the belt. Too bad.

Good idea, Arnaud! are you able to find those flat 'twisty-wires' that is plastic-coated on both sides? I have seen them some where before (not sold in rolls but rather, used to tie new electrical products) ...I'll look search too
-
I really like those figure great use of the ragged trousers and hairy chests, my favourite has got to be the guy in the white shrit but, they all look good and the hats look really cool as well :)
-
great looking figures! I saw a photo from one of the Spanish shows where they had used the top off an old style covered wagon fit to a Viking Longboat hull to make an Asian riverboat. It looked great, just the sport of thing these guys would use I should think.
-
Very nice customs. :clap:
I really like your asians.
Much better than Playmobil originals ones. :)9

Another set of wonderful customs, cheng. All you need now is a cormorant from Playmobil so you can have a fisherman using that to fish.
Is the "Water Margin" mentioned the TV series from the 1960s?
I may have some bits of the plastic ties which come holding electric flex as I just bought a new satnav. Any I find, I'll send to you, cheng.

thanks Playmofriends!!

thanks Gordon;
ah...those goose-like birds with tight rings(prevent them from swallowing, right?) around their necks
oh, I didnt know they showed Water Margin in England back in those days even!
but I dont remember the old TV series, there is a newer one in colour ;)
those ties has to be long enough to go 1 full round a kliky's waist and a bit left for twisting...completely flat ones I hope (not those you see a central bulge for covering a thin round wire) please send photo first if you find suitable flat PVC-wire ties ;)

China made another "Water Margin" aka "Outlaws of the Marsh" TV series right after the longest running Chinese series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in early 2000.
I like Three Kingdoms but "Water Margin" was the better TV series. It was really moving towards the end...
I think China recently did yet another run of the two series... Which didn't look very good to me although I have not watch it either to be a good judge of it.

Just realised that it was our TV that was black and white, not the film! And it was in the 1970s. In fact, I found this on Youtube which made me realise my mistake:

The theme is very much like the early James Bond films in places and the narrator, Burt Kwouk, is probably best known in the UK for his role in the comedy series "Last of the Summer Wine" as Entwistle from Hull.

LarryHHH, is the "All men are brothers" tv series similar to the "Marsh Margin" you are talking about?
and Gordon, I've not seen the youtube clip you shared, the credits are mostly Japanese names and probably a local japanese production aired by NipponTV

"All men are brothers" is the new 'not-so-credible-looking' production, the one I watched was by CCTV:
