Their models are sold unpainted.
Does anyone know if "25 mm scale" is the same as 1:32?

Gosh, Willy ! Those tiny, fine little models :
Good to have an expert visit now and then (o)):

AND : Miracle of all miracles , - I think I have those little pigeons, - got them together with some Reisler

25mm scale is roughly 1/72. It means it is much smaller than 1/32.
When a scale is presented in mm unite, it means that the figure fits with a human figure 25mm tall. Or 2,5 cm if you like best.
1/32 scale is also known as 54mm scale. So figures fit with a 5,4 cm tall human figure.

Or 70mm with a 70mm high human figurine...

Too bad. 1:32 models seem to be relatively hard to find

Hi Magda

Here is a range of Britains birds in 1:32nd scale:


Plus there are the sparrows and doves from the Britains Floral Garden. Been busy lately but will try and take pictures of these soon.

Don't you own the complete set of the newer penguins Chris?

No Willy - I just have this pose. One day I will find the other two poses to complete this mini-collection.

Oh ok Chris.
I will look out for you for these 2.
When i have something i let you know!

Thank you Willy - the three "new" penguin poses all look the same to me. So every time I see one I think "Is this the one I already have?"

Great lot of birds Chris (o)): (o)): (o)): (o)):

Haha, i already know now that you have the one that looks to the left, so you are missing the one that looks to the right and the one that looks in front of him...
Is there anything else you are looking for in Britains?

Apologies Willy for this late reply. Most of the Britains animal figures I am looking for are the easy stuff made post 1971. Until now I haven’t bothered to buy them because I see them all the time at toy fairs! These include the polar bears, walrus etc.....

Well, i still have a group of them lying around here.
PM me your adres please, with the list you are searching for.
Greetz, Willy.

Here are 4 of my 1/32 Macaws:

They are displayed on the "housing" i build for my MinatureZoo. I apined them myself: 2 Ara militaris and 2 Ara Macao.

Very very wonderful and big congrats that you found what you had searched

Mooi gedaan M?(we hebben de gewoonte hier om onze naam onder de treads vast te zetten, zodat iedereen weet hoe we je noemen moeten)
Heb je voor de ara's de modelletjes van AH WWF serie gebruikt, dat is nl de enige die in die maat is...

Nicely done M?(we are used to put our name under the treads, so everybody here knows how to call you by name).
Did you use the AH WWF series macaws for these models, because this is the only one in this size...

Thanks! No, i did not use those macaws, those are bigger then the ones i used, they are the right 1:32-size. I will post a photo of the Original one soon!

Very nice enclosure! Have you done other ones? How do they look like?

That is WONDERFUL
What beautyful birds, and so nicely they live, with food bowls and all (o)): (o)):

Hi, yes i painted also a Blue and yellow Macaw and a Hyacint Macaw. As soon as their "housing" is ready, i will post pictures. I also intend to paint 1 or 2 Greenwinged Macaws (Ara chloroptera).

I look very much forward to see them

Btw, what material is the walls on the picture ? They are beautyful, whith the rounded top and all (o)):

The material i made the walls from is thick paper one can buy (in Holland and Germany at least) in shops where you can buy material for railroad-hobby. The round corner in the top is where i bend the paper: i bend it over/on thick paper and glued it on to each other. In this way, the wall has (in 1/32) the thickness of 1 stone.

The other Macaws i painted have different "housing" as you can see here (it is a Ara ararauna):

The Hyacinth Macaw is not ready, i will post a picture as soon as i finished it. The miniature Zoo i am building is an old-style Zoo, i think it is nostalgic. Maybe not like the Zoos we see nowadays, but thankfully the 1/32 animals don't complain...

The goal is to make a sort of "Parrotlane" with 3 of these Macawstandings on 1 side and on the other side of the lane 3 small avaries with other species of Parrots (i allready painted 1 African Grey for this). At the end of the lane one walks towards the housing i posted earlier (with the Militaris and Macao).

Great
