I construct plastic model artillery guns from WW1 and am searching for a craftsman who can manufacture brass / copper 1/35 scale artillery shells for these models. While there are a few kit producers that offer plastic shells, they generally lack detail and are frequently cast in groups of shells. I possess the dimensions for the shells I require. In the future, these could potentially become a popular saleable item. I have attached examples that is shows the sort of thing I am looking for. Unfortunately these examples are in 1/32 scale and are for only one gun.

Hi ,send me a pm!
 
I'd suggest sending a file off to a few of the online companies that offer CNC machining services, they can soon quote for turning them from brass, the more you want the cheaper they become. Should get a better finish than any PU cast ones and are how a lot of the WW2 aftermarket ones are made
