Title: War of the Spanish Succession Infantry painting video
Post by: Lluís of Minairons on 01 December 2021, 04:34:40 PM: I'm happy to share this YouTube video below, recorded by a gaming mate, which shows the painting process of a Minairons miniatures WSS 1/72 Austrophile Infantry set, along with its command group. I hope you like it as much as I do!

Yes they're the same size as Zvezda plastic ones.

We're currently playing this period's larger battles using Maurice with 15mm figures; however, a gaming mate (the video author) recently conceived the idea to use 1/72 figures for smaller scale engagements (skirmishes and so), and that's we're likely going to do in a future.

I was too wondering so while watching this video.
Perhaps better asking to the video author using his YouTube channel ;)

Post by: Lluís of Minairons on 03 December 2021, 11:00:20 AM: We're currently enjoying one single retailer in the UK - this is McKeeman Models, from Scotland.
I can't recall if they do carry products belonging to this particular period - it should be asked.
