I agree with Romark.

Wow and wow again.

I have these same figures coming to me in the mail.

Think they will be here this week. (I hope.)

Can't wait.

A new painting tutorial devoted to Roosevelt's Rough Riders is now available at our website! I hope you would find it useful.

Dear friends! it's been a while without news from us but here we are again! With three new codes of Filipino insurgents. As most rebels lacked firearms, we added to the current range two codes of Tagalog armed with bolos, the traditional Filipino machete, and insurgents with mixed weapons including bamboo spears, bows, an axe and a crossbow! Also, sue the lack of artillery, Tagalog used obsolete or improvised guns called lantakas, like the one at the picture.




Finally, we added a new premium collection to the catalogue with these two infantry new codes plus the four existing (command group, Spanish native regiments/deserters charging, Spanish native regiments/deserters skirmishing, Tagalog in civilian dress with mixed firearms) plus a free exclusive miniature of Andres Bonifacio, Katipunan Supremo!


More news soon, including Stanish and American artillery!

 :o I am more excited then I should be for this range.
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

hello
Maybe Those Filippino insurgents could also pass for the insurgents that fought  Us occupation troops ..
last year i read this splendid book :
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13012117-jungle-patrol-the-story-of-the-philippine-constabulary
which i strongly suggest also because is full of tales about every possible skirmish ..that call for almost ready made wargame scenarios....contrary to what i expected the majority of actions carried by Philippino Constabulary lead by US Officers..(i already began to paint a TSTAF unit of black fez, kaki uniformed castings purchased many years ago from Pass Of the North/Monday Knight Productions from USA) were against various ethnic groups of Phlippino fearsome insurgents...mainly armed with Bolos (machete) and not only Vs the most famous Muslim fanatic Moros...
so do you think those 1898 Phlippinos, above all the machete armed, could also be used for the Christian insurgents that fought US troops and Constabulary/Philippino Scouts untill the Twenties?

THE PHILIPPINES 1930s KODAK TRAVELOGUE HEMP COCONUT HARVEST


Philippine coconut harvest in 1925


Manila During American Occupation (1920s)


Manila, Queen of the Pacific 1938


Looks like these will just fine for Rural insurgences and people into even the 40s with a more devers color patterns.
But will do fine for a poor rebel with out a gun. Also Tossing the odd Panama, Gambaler hat or Fedoura onto a few will cement them more into the 20's and 30's.

Will there be Cubans or support troops, artillery and mgs, for the US or Spain down the road? How about a German advisor for the Spanish.

Yes! Spanish and Americans guns were designed in 3D, you can see pics of the printed models at our website. Artillery crews are also already done and we will start the production soon. The Gatling is also on its way.

On Cuban Mambises, it will be the next big addition to the range, but first we want to release some US and Spanish commanders (historical characters) and US Marines.

I checked it out and it looks very good. Just a couple more questions, will the NY Volunteers with their trapdoor Springfields be on your list? Also machine guns for the Spanish. I'm looking forward to see your personalities.

Definitely, at some point we'll release State Troops with Springfields.
