kanemono Posted January 19, 2010 Share #1 Posted January 19, 2010 Hi, I am new to this forum and thought I would introduce my self with some of my creations. These are "GI JOE" prototypes created for Cotswold Collectibles about ten years ago. They are all hand fabricated from dozens of individual brass pieces brazed and soldered together. Here are a few of a hundred or so miniature weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kanemono Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share #4 Posted January 20, 2010 Thank you very much. Here is a "Highlander Set" Everything is made in silver, steel and ivory. You can see the scale from the nickel. The other piece is a sculpture called "Culloden" cast in stainless steel, about 1/6 scale. Dick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Baker Posted February 7, 2013 Share #21 Posted February 7, 2013 Amazing! It looks more like a large dime next to the real thing. In fact, if you removed the dime they would fool anybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanemono Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share #22 Posted April 11, 2013 Here is another set of miniature weapons. This cased set is quarter scale and includes weapons and accouterments that would have been worn by an officer during the French and Indian War. Everything is fully functional.

cutiger83 Posted April 11, 2013 Share #24 Posted April 11, 2013 WHOA! I can't believe the scale. If the quarter wasn't sitting there, I would swear these were real. ....Kat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Dentino Posted April 11, 2013 Share #25 Posted April 11, 2013 These have to be some of the most incredible small scale models I have ever seen in my life! Thanks for bringing this one back up to the top as I remember the original 2011 postings well. This cased set is just the coolest thing I have ever seen! If I may ask, how long will it take you to craft something like a knife....let alone some of the more decorative items? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
