Factory Modelismo is a Brazilian 3D printing brand specialized in figures, tools, and modeling accessories. Rodrigo de Almeida runs the company, and it seems to be everything in there, from janitor to CEO. I recently acquired a few sets from Factory, all in 1/72 scale but one. They are figures and diorama accessories, so needed for those who practice dioramas and vignettes in 1/72 scale. I also received a set of sailors in 1/144. The items are not numbered, you have to browse Factory webpage and choose by description.
I
will leave you with the pictures of the products. But let me first say
that I am really satisfied with Factory's products. They are well
printed, the resolution is good even for small scales, and it is clear
that Rodrigo has studied the best incidence to print each item. In some
photos, you can see printing marks (beach marks), but they are not
noticeable by eye, believe me, let alone after a coat of paint. And of
course, like most 3D printed items, you can print these items in other
scales as well. The photos below show the items as they came from the
manufacturer - no cleanup was attempted.

Chairs and kerosene gallon 1/72It is very good to see a local manufacturer making modeling enhancement products, particularly during these pandemic times, when the shipping costs skyrocketed. Foreign customers, please refer to Factory web page for inquires.
Highly recommended.
