Jed you are going to have to do another gunner for your gattling gun now. ;D
-
What is it with the general sexiness of women with guns? lol
It had the specific sexiness of Brigitte Bardot (for a 1960s audience) AND the general sexiness of women with guns. :D

Great figures Ged, full of character and detail.
How well would they fit in with say Copplestone castings. I ask as i have a large number of Amazonian indians and should have the jungle terrain finished this week. All i need are some suitable opposition for an early 20th century encounter and like the look of your Federales :-*
-
Stavros
i believe they are compatable for the main part and would
look good with the Copplestone castings.....
thanks for the thumbs up!

I am busy making some Mexican houses for some of these miniatures I ordered from Gringo40 ; and they will probably meet some Copplestone adventurers there, so we'll see what they can do together :)
-
Just received them - Hey it's an excellent range of miniatures!
In my opinion they mix well with Copplestone and Pulp Figures and that gives news ideas - I don't know if it's what Ged aimed at but such a range could also give inspiration for multi-player half-historical adventure scenarios (as played in other contexts, BoB, etc), with Revolutionaries, Federal troops, villains, agents of Foreign oil companies, adventurers, etc, fighting each other or negociating.
AAaaargh I DID NOT want to get involved in any 28mm Mexican Revolution... and then Ged made these minis.
-
Sounds good with regards to the compatibility and yes they would be suitable for other countries and factions...trying to come up with a name for a fictional south American country as i'm going for a pulpy sort of colonial bash although i do like the Bolivian uniforms of the era and any reason to field Picklehaube wearing cavalry in dense bush/jungle has gotta be done...just need Ged to make em now lol
-
Patrice.thanks for the support and psot....glad you like the figures
i will extend the range as i need to "backfill" some of my 28mm ranges
its just a time thing! :D
Stravros nice idea!...........

Not sure if there is a very big market for 28mm Picklehaubed South Americans... ;) :D but two of Ged's last releases have separate heads so it could be a solution for you.

Excellent. :)
Please don't make them bigger, they are just nice. Compatibilty is the key; and of course, different poses, heads /headgears swapping can be a good idea. :)

Lol...you will be surprised at how many latin American countries wore them either in parades or in the field, even down to the cloth covers and Germanic tunics etc. check this site out and prepare to get 'spikey' lol
