Hi All
I came across some Lewis Guns from Shapeways, 48 of them!!

Very depressing for me since the postage to Australia is over twice the price of the guns :( $20.00!!!)

It's coming up at £15-ish with shipping to the UK, I'm not sure what that equates to in $AUS?
bout 30 Sport.

If you need them for aircraft then I recommend the Peter Pig 1/144. It is correctly cast as aircooled version. The difference in scale for this size of figure is about 1mm with "10mm/1/150".
If you want the jacket version I have a number of converts with different heads based on BP3. If there is demand I can send Leon a convert with the head pinned that should survive the mould.

Hello James/Sunray
Thanks for the pointers, I was looking for some for Aircraft (I'm in the middle of converting the Zvezda JU52 to a Spartan Cruiser-ish type aircraft and thought a dorsal Lewis gun might set off the Ju87 spatted wheels :) :) ).

But I was also looking for some to add AA capabilities to some scratch built armoured trucks. Up to now I've been using scratch built stuff for guns but I was getting lazy :D. I've also been doing some conversion work on the WW1 and VBCW Lewis gunners using the civilian cloth cap, sidecap/isabelino, Adrian helmet and French sailor cap (makes a good ToS).
