Ysi_maniac's figures and personal weapons

[ysi_maniac]

Some real world WWII German weapons (same scale approx)



Some studies for a figures project

[Jeffry Fontaine]

G43 with a drum magazine might be an interesting combination.

[ysi_maniac]

What if a 12.70 mm version of MG-42

[Crbad]

What if a 12.70 mm version of MG-42

I know the M2 .50 cal and M1919 .30 cal are very similar, are they scaled up/down versions of the same weapon? One suggestion. Perhaps trade the pistol grip and buttstock on the mg 42 for spade grips and a butterfly trigger like on the .50? That would be a lot of force transferring to the shoulder of the shooter, even with a tripod.

The modified MP40 with the rifle stock reminded me of the French MAS38 prewar SMG

Interesting!!





From Wolfenstien NWO

Love that MP-44 with drum magazine.

[ysi_maniac]

Submachine gun

First one is taken from a toy description. Is it inspired in any real weapon?

[Volkodav]

One of my favourites is the FG42 with a US company now manufacturing and selling semi auto versions.

The various iterations of the Mauser C96, including fixed stock carbines and fully auto versions, is also very interesting.

Toying with Beretta 92 and AK-47



I particularly like the long barrel pistol :)

[ysi_maniac]

Two ways to add drum magazine to Mauser 1912.

[Jeffry Fontaine]

C96 Mauser.  One of my favourite pistols and a fine example of Steam punk style weaponry :) 

The concept on the left in the above image is the more practical of the two as it would imply that the magazine is detachable and would fit in the existing magazine well of the Mauser.  Later versions of the C96 with larger capacity detachable magazines and fully automatic capability being the best example of this feature.  The selective fire Mauser M1932 / M712 Schnellfeuer pistol is a good example of the detachable higher capacity magazine modification with a practical (for the time) 20 round box magazine. 

[ysi_maniac]

Top image is from a toy. AFAIK it does not represent any real pistol but it is inspired in 2 subjects: slide looks like Baby Desert Eagle and the rest looks like Beretta 92. I would be very greatiful if someone give us better info.

Lower image is a proposal to extend gun. I like long barrel pistols. :)

[ysi_maniac]

What if a Desert Eagle submachine gun?

... and what if a dual magazine pistol with 2 kind of compatible cartridges to choose?

[ysi_maniac]

There are examples in RW of MP40 and MP44 with drum magazines, but I prefer the PPSH drum (rescaled in MP44 case).

[GTX_Admin]

I like the bottom one.

[ysi_maniac]

Variations on MP44

[Old Wombat]

Taking that lower MP-44 & adding a folding stock would look interesting & be practical. As would doing the same to the drum-magazined version in reply #14.

[Jeffry Fontaine]

I have been playing around with the idea of adding a drum magazine to the M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle.  Something that would hold around fifty rounds of ammunition.  Yeah, probably not a great idea due to the weapon over heating and no means of replacing the barrel but in 1:35th scale it should look rather interesting. :)

With Panzerfaust



Again Kar98, MP40, MP44
 

[ysi_maniac]

Can I assume that the 4 long rifles are avantcharge?

Thanks

If you mean muzzle-loaders, yes.

[ysi_maniac]

Were there breech loader rifles in ACW?

[Old Wombat]

Haven't watched these but I do watch the sites (esp. Forgotten Weapons) but I haven't had the time to catch up on all of Ian's videos, they should be good.

These are the images that came up when I searched "civil war breech loaders" on Google;

What if free France paratrooper in late WWII, with british equipment but keeping the Adrian helmet? French exception.

[ysi_maniac]

First of all, I have to warn that I put this type of projects in the Figures section because for me this is the main incentive to carry them out.  :thumbsup:

Study for a scaleorama project with a 1/72 IS-2 and 1/35 soviet soldiers.









So: what do you prefer between 2 last: Single seater with 1 or 2 riders, or twin tandem seater?

[finsrin]

Nifty.  Like them. 

[ysi_maniac]

C96   P08 With 2 magazines to have double load or two kind of ammo :thumbsup: 

[GTX_Admin]

What the...?

Top one looks like a Chinese prototype that was built using a Russian tank as a basis.

Bottom one looks like one of those mini-tanks used to train Russian children in the Army cadets
