Title: The Spanish have arrived!
Post by: Leon on 02 April 2022, 09:42:16 PM
Now that Tony's able to work properly again he's tied himself to the sculpting desk and managed to do the full ensemble of Spanish infantry in March, so this lot completes the entire Spanish range. 

We'll be putting these straight into master moulds on Mon/Tues and then production moulds will follow on.  If all goes to plan I'm hoping to have them moulded, cast and sent out to everyone by the end of April.  And then we can aim to have all of the Peninsular ranges on general sale sometime in May.

One quick note on the generic Confederation figures, we're going to shelve those for a few months time while Tony catches up on his work from other clients.  I think it'll be best to remove those from any pledges for now so that we can get this project completed, and then they can be sculpted, moulded and put on sale for anyone that wants them.

Absolutely cracking and am really looking forward to getting my grubby mitts on these  8) . I really love the priest figure and can't help but think of Monty Python's Spanish Inquisition sketch  :D  ;) .

These look great - I think I've only got the guerrillas in my order but could see some more figures being added.

Leon, can I ask where the houses are up to?

You've been holding out on us Mr Pengilley.

When I click into the photos for a better look, it says the photos were taken on Feb 9th 2002! :-\

You've had these figures for 20 years!  >:(

Now you've said that, I cant unsee it  ;D
The priest will work very well for my SCW project, though who'd be a preist in 1930's Spain?! :o

Thanks for all the comments, glad you like them!

I've kicked John on those as he'd had to put them on the backburner while he got his new unit up and running.  He's got the bulk of the outstanding ones done now so I think it's just the church and one of the others still to do.  He'll be working to the same 'end of April' deadline so we should have this whole project completed very soon!

Cool (well hoping it was a virtual kick...)

Looking forward to these lovely figures and researching Spanish uniforms, have I missed the photos of the garrochistas ?

Edit - found them
