GWR 'Manor' Crew - Chauffør/brandmand - GWR

These really add something extra to the loco. As a bonus they will fit in some other classes of loco too.

Perfect sizing & scale for any model, not just Accurascale models.

Only negative is they can be a little flimsy, several have been unfortunately damaged due to my own poor handling - however these were fitted into models with closed cabs such as my Bachmann Panniers.

Have purchased several sets & likely to purchase others to fit in my existing GWR fleet.

A little tricky to install in the right place but once there it really finishes off the model.

These are the coloured versions which although a little pale in the skin tone are a perfect fit. Designed for the Manor they really do look the part and complete the loco. Would look great in any steam cab though.

They provide the perfect finishing touch to my Accurascale Manors!

A somewhat recurring theme with most things Accurascale…another excellent product. The colouring looks great (and not to fuel a cliche, but they do look better in person than in photos). The quality of the printing regardless of colouring is also excellent, and they fit really well into the cab of the manor.

The advert shows the two characters having very fine details and a very clear printed image.
Unfortunately when they arrive they are not like that, the printing is very washed out and it looks as if they are covered head to toe in glitter. Painting them myself highlights that the printing is also not to a good standard.
It’s disappointing as I have other 3D printed crew from the same outside manufacturer (not Accurascale) which arrive in a grey resin, which prints a lot finer and you paint yourself, with very good results.
Unfortunately when my crew arrived, the fireman had a broken wrist and his shovel was also broken. It’s a nice fancy box, but it allowed too much movement in transit to Spain.
In fairness to Accurascale though, it was replaced very quickly - even if DHL and the Spanish customs authorities had other ideas.
I have painted the crew up and I am hoping that when they are in the loco you don’t see you bad the printing is.
Overall for a new printing process, I am very disappointed. The cost is significantly more than an unpainted 3D print from the same outside company, where you can get better results.

They came in an impressive presentation box, which did nothing to protect them in transit, as the fireman had a missing hand. Unfortunately, the print quality is far inferior to the unpainted crews from the same manufacturer and the pre-printed colour is at best inconsistent and pale. The superb website images show finely detailed figures with sharp rendered faces and uniforms which appear very lifelike, yet this is not reflected in the actual figures and the fireman has even changed his dungarees for trouser and braces and is now wearing a hat!

They look good, can't wait to put them on my Manor

I was disappointed as the finish of the figures is not that as shown in the listing.

If these where supplied in 3d resin unpainted the definition would be so much better.

I have had myself scanned at ModelU and printed in resin so I know the difference between these figures.

Excellent quality really pleased with the purchase

Fantastic, ready to place footplate crew. Perfectly acceptable as they are pre coloured, but doesn't take long to add some depth to the fine detailing with a touch of paint and a wash. Highly recommended!

These ready to place figures are a superb and easy way to crew your loco

These figures look great in the locomotive

Great addition to my 'Manor' steam locomotive.

Perfect match for my Accurascale Manor, very fine detail and colouring is precise.

Great crew, useful for all kinds of GWR locos as well.

I was looking for engine crew figures that were more realistic than other offerings and these suited my requirements entirely.

These figures are very good quality, both in appearance and painting. A little fiddly to place in the model, but still very good quality

Decent looking figures

Very good and looks great on the loco.

Nice clean figures that are well painted. Wish I has found them before as over the years have painted hundreds of figures for my model railway.

Great Figures .Just need to dirty them up a bit.......

Well painted and looks great when fitted will buy again

These figures are really useful...
Different from some other ready painted figures.

Look great

Appreciate them being well detailed and painted
