Painted Rif and Spanish
« on: 03 May 2011, 11:12:15 PM »
I though it would be a nice distraction to show a few pictures of some painted Rif and Spanish from Rif Raf Miniatures Rif War range.  Just follow the link below.....

The photographer has now been fired! (that'll be me then, lol).

 
Cheers,

Marco

Very nice work. Lovely figures and a little bit of inspiration for me. Those Spaniards in floppy hats, just might, witha  little conversion make suitable Brazilian troops for the 1930s.

Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Thanks Carlos :)  Yes, I can see where you're coming from on that one with regards to the Brazilian troops of the 1930's....there certainly is a bit of a passing resemblance.  A very interesting photo by the way :)

Thank you too Bjorn  :)  Photography has never been my strong point and I usually manage to get one good photo out of every hundred, lol  Feel free to leave your comments on the Facebook page.

Glad you like the range  :)

I really like the poses and anatomy on these figures.

I've never considered the period but these are so good I may have to think about it.

I Have been considering this war but wanted out of 25+ mm scale.  Please tell me these are 15 mm???

If not you just put me on to the horns of a dilemma...

Oh my.

Gracias,

Glenn

Edit:  Just went to Rif Raf Miniatures.  Damn, I had some other ideas for an totally unexpected cash award...

You are EVIL! (in the best sense of the word...)
