Well painted Ray.
Nothing wrong about them.
I am waiting for my figures to arrive.
Ordered them from Spain last week.

Sorry about the delay, we had some consecutive bank holidays, including May 2nd to commemorate the uprising of the people of Madrid versus the French in 1808.



but that's another story

Ahmm... thanks all!  :)

Personally I think they are a tad too blue.

Working on jungle bases myself

Thinking about doing the same thing.

1898 Miniatures is pleased to present our vignette of Vara de Rey at the battle of El Caney, inspired by the statue of the general in Ibiza. The set consists of two miniatures and a base, and is already in preorder in our online store.







We also put at your disposal a new free article in our History section, Joaquin Vara del Rey and the battle of El Caney by Frank Jastrzembski.


Buena semana!

Love the sculpting here. And you guys are conducting a clinic on how to support and market historical wargames miniatures  with your website.  Can't wait for the Americans and Moros!
