Forming a Chinese/Sino force in 28mm for 1894-1895
« on: August 10, 2019, 01:35:16 PM »
The Chinese army of 1894 was undergoing a period of change accordingly the army that went into Korea and Manchuria to fight the Japanese was part traditional part Westernised.

To form up this army in 28mm I would start with Castaway arts, from there I would progress to Victorious Miniatures, add in selective packs from Foundry, Redoubt and Old glory will give you  the best foundation of an army.

Hi Shipka, it seems as if you know what you are talking about. Would you mind listing which figures and or codes you would use for this Force?
Thanks,
