Holodoc Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 Hello all! I have recently read an (older) article in the Blocks magazine about the Great Western Brickshow in Swindon 2014. There was a photo about some "not-so-mini" figures: They are definitely smaller than the maxifig from set 3723. Does anybody know more about these figures? Does anybody have more photos (I don't dare to ask for instructions...) Or do we even have the creator around here in the forums? Thanks for help! Quote
L@go Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 These are James Sutton's figures in six times normal scale. He's a Brickish member. If you want, I can PM you his email address. I believe he also built these, on display with Duncan Titmarsh's 6x scale Yellow Castle: BA-AGM-2008-19 by Martin Long, on Flickr Incidentally, this appeared in newly-restored state at BRICK 2015 last week.

KlodsBrik Posted December 19, 2015 Posted December 19, 2015 These are all really well build. That yellow castle creation is so beautiful. I was really wondering on how the scale of 1/6 worked. Luckily there is more pictures on that flickr account. Well, enough to get an idea on how they are done. Should be straightforward. Definately gonna have to build something to this scale in the future. Quote
Holodoc Posted December 19, 2015 Author Posted December 19, 2015 Oh, wonderful L@go! Thanks for the info and I'd like to have his e-mail address as I want to make my own sigfig in a scale like this! Quote
Holodoc Posted December 28, 2015 Author Posted December 28, 2015 Looking at James' flickr folder I don't think he's the one who built the figs shown in my first post. He did some similar ones, which are nice to re-build as well, but the ones in his flickr don't represent the figs from the Great Western Brickshow in Swindon 2014. And I'm stuck with contacting him by email - he didn't reply so far. Any more ideas? Quote
L@go Posted December 28, 2015 Posted December 28, 2015 I wasn't aware that James had a Flickr account. How did you find that? The image I posted is from Martin Long's Flickr - he's the facilitator for the GWBS and not the guy who built the figures. Quote

It was of course Martin's flickr account I was referring to. Too bad he hasn't got more photos on his flickr. I try to hunt down more of James' photos on the net. Quote
