Title: Great War Miniatures
Post by: Tym on 28 June 2013, 07:02:53 PM
Does anyone know if the people who did this range are going to come back to it to finish it off?
I wondered with the  coming of the centenary if we may expect something?

Hi Guys, yes we are making more WW1 figures. As mentioned I've just finished the French cuirassiers and am currently working on the 75mm gun and crew and some staff figures. I'll then be moving on to the early German range and be making staff, limbers and hussars. Aly in the mean time is busy with the Crimean war French. Cheers, Dave

Guess you're not making the Early War British cavalry machine gun then... ;)

This is excellent news, Dave. On bended knees I beg you to produce a Britsh Cavalry Hotchkiss MkI crew. My heartfelt appeal to the world can be read here......

This is very very good news.  I to will await a time and look forward to these releases.
The early French and early German Cavalry especially.  The big one for me will be Limbers!!  Can you consider some different field pieces?

Big thank you.

More early Germans for me even though I have only just ever so slightly touched the surface of the Great War (obviously this isn't a request just making a note for myself more than anything  :) ).

cheers

I'd like to point out that nobody does late war Germans with feldmutze, longcoats and light equipment that could be used for the German Revolution.  ::)

I would really like to see the wounded and medics that feature in the Great War rulebook, such nice miniatures.
Title: Re: Great War Miniatures
Post by: cdr on 03 July 2013, 05:07:40 AM
also some more Belgians please.
A Belgian cavalry Hotchkiss would be great. (already in use in 1914)

I vote for the wounded and medics from the Great War rule book as well!

How about some minis for the Macedonian theatre - Serbs, Romanians, Greeks, Bulgarians and such?

Post by: Incomp on 05 July 2013, 01:46:15 PM
all these wonderfull minor nations aside, there is a shocking lack of late war French forces!
Would absolutely love to see late war French in the future as the other companies that produce them dont really do it for me..
Title: Re: Great War Miniatures

I'll second late war French.  That would be a brilliant addition.

German limbers you say?

Sad... I just bought several of them, and I'm not 100% happy with them. I can wait ;)

Last year with the help of some very nice not to say generous and talented people we created through scalpel, green stuff, paint and time a Turkish heavy artillery battery

What would be great is a Great War Miniatures generic WW1 plus heavy gun crew. That is some blokes in shirt sleeve, puttees and with head swaps if possible to recreate a host of gun crews whether Greek or Japanese for the whole.

Dave and Aly scratched up two British crews which featured in Wargames Illustrated in Nov 2009, Issuse 265 :-* :-* :-*

....And last but not least a fat Turkish General lol lol

Woodbine Design has a generic guncrew, 6-7 guys in shirtsleeves, puttee pants and suspenders, no heads, You can put up whichever you like....
they are listed under British
only problem are the few who carry 3 inch shells
Title: Re: Great War Miniatures
Post by: Beast of Bukhara on 08 July 2013, 03:12:32 PM
Woodbine's range and gunners in particular are excellent  :-* :-* I have pressed them into service for a number of nations including the USMC, Japan and Turkey  8) I think they may even be one in amongst these Perry mins figures converted to a Turkish (Bukharan) Heavy Battery by our very own Over Open Sights

As you rightly point out they are really meant as a field gun crew and so do not in this context "stand up", forgive the pun for anything much heavier than a 75mm lol

we need the very talented duo of GWM to produce yet more ...and  more and more  ;D ;D

Ah ...go on... go on go on  o_o >:D >:D

Any thing else is secondary .... lol

It's great to have some other things for the early war french range !!

I have a question.

Between the F107 pack and the F110 pack in the french range, there is no pack.

What have you planned ?

Some chasseurs à pied ?
