That's right .  He is no longer a flat-figure editor.  Dealer yes, for accessories and 1/72 collectors.
best regards

I am uncertain, if Fredericus Rex has any flats in stock.
He sold his moulds and shifted completely to 1:72 buildings and figures.

Gents,
Thank you for your help on this. I've worked a lot more hours during lock down as a member of the emergency services so hobby time is minimal. Flat figures are a great way to get painting quickly with minimal preparation. Plus they cover a wider range than round figures do.


Stay safe gents.

Ok based on your interests - Brian has some great advice/figures as well as Hannibal.


I would add Fredricus Rex which has a large range of Seven Years Wars, Glorious Empires - Napoleonic, a few ACW and AFCFEF - French Flat Figures society - French History - some wonderful Napoleonic and Franco Prussian War.  There are links to all of these here on this site:

Have fun and always feel to reach out - larger figures are the rage right now and you options are constantly expanding.

Thanks Mark and everybody,
I’m in the UK (and I’ve remembered to update that on my profile!).


I would say my main periods are the Seven Years War, Napoleonic, ACW and Franco Prussian. However, larger scales seem rarer than 30mm so I’m flexible as I simply enjoy the painting.

Mark where are you located and what time periods are you interested in as that changes the answer a bit?

The owner of the Quadriconcept moulds is Louis Becavin, in France.


He is no longer commercialising nor promoting his flats, but he has some castings done, and perhaps could still make some during occasional short campaigns on special requests...


I can send one of his last catalogues by MP if sending me your email address by MP.


He can be contacted on becavin.louis@neuf.fr
perhaps also qcfigurines@aol.com

Mark,  if you have a look on ebay.de you will find a lot of larger figures from Benedikt Widmann, his seller name is benew or pisanello.
Mostly large figures, different themes, well engraved and he ships international.

On Facebook you can find the   KLIO  ,   the german association of tin figure collectors.   

Some months ago there was a french gentleman on this KLIO FB account who could be asked for Quadri Concept figures. Unfortunately there is a lot of different posts and I could not find his name at the moment. Maybe one of the french friends could help.

Hi,
I’m fairly new to flat figures but have some experience of round figures and prefer to work in oils despite the popularity of acrylics. I’m looking for some larger scale figure companies. 54mm and up. Can anybody suggest some good companies or stockists? I’ve got some from Berliner Zinnfiguren, having visited there a few years ago but am struggling to find others. I’d recommend their shop but bring lots of money if you visit or be very disciplined!Likewise, do you know of anywhere I can find Quadri Concept figures?I tend to prefer figures from 1740 to 1871.Thanks in advance.
