Let me apologize in advance for offending anyone if I've made a breach of etiquette, placing a 3mm post on a 2mm topic. To me, they're so close, they're the same.

Anyway, I am a sci-fi armor gamer and I've recently noticed a number of "manufacturers" that have released 3mm armor. Cool, don't ya' think??

Here is an overview:
:) - Pico Armor has begun 3mm scifi. http://www.picoarmor.com/
8) - Shapeways Store - National Cheese Emporium by javelin98. http://www.shapeways.com/shops/javelin98?sort=newest

Both very nice.

Enjoy. Happy scifi gaming.

GZG also has an extensive 3mm Sci-fi line as well ...

Those GEVs look like perfect smaller scale TF Legion vehicles L4...

Well, it would appear that as usual, this stuff has been known about by others for quite awhile, and I am just now learning about it. See the TMP discussion:

It appears that he is trying to get moulds done to turn them into pewter minis as opposed to 3D printed minis in hopes of bringing the cost down.

L4, the TF Legion is very impressive. Are those the 2mm GZG tanks being used as drones?

I have Jav's 2mm tracked and GEV tanks. They're great. I've been slowly getting them ready for paint. Maybe they'll see some in 2014.

Thanks Anthony ! No 2mm GZG were used on TF Legion. The MBTs, ACAVs, SPFA, TDs and Jeeps are 6mm Old Crow. The Grunts are GZG 6mm NAC Infantry and NAC 6mm one man skimmers ...No drones in TF Legion ... Just Grunts, AFVs and Jeeps ... Kind of reminds of the M113 Company I command ,'87-'89. We had M113s and M60s ... 8) Image Infantry on one man skimmers ... not drones ...
