1:72 Wine Cellar released!

[Lluís of Minairons]

This year, the Alpha-ARES veteran wargaming club has merged its prestigious yearly show into the larger format Dau Històric event, that is sponsored by Barcelona municipality to promote gaming habit among population. Historical wargaming will have its room there, tomorrow Saturday 18th; and, as it couldn't be otherwise, Minairons Miniatures will be attending to it once again.



Next to our stand, a group of gaming friends from AJJRR Reus town gaming club will hold a gorgeous 1938 Gandesa battle scenario using 1:72 scale (20mm) miniatures from Minairons and other makes. The spectacular scenario shown is going to incorporate the first ever assembled and painted model kit of our long since announced Wine Cellar --a large scenery piece reproducing an architecural feature common to many villages in southern and central Catalonia. Model kit is packaged in a sturdy cardboard box, that also serves as a central core around which the rest of building components are assembled.

As said, this is a large scenery piece, likely to capture watchers' sight not less than a cathedral. The whole boxed kit weighs around 0.59 kg and, once built, building model size is to be 26.5 cm long x 16 cm wide x 16 cm high approximately. It is already available on Minairons website at the price of €59.95 --however, during Dau Històric event only, we're going to retail it at a 15% discount, as a promotion. If you enjoy the chance to visit the show, don't miss it!!

Thanks for reading!

Lluis,

That is a truly wonderful model. Fabulous detail and quite distinctive.

I must admit I quite like the poster for the show, mostly for it's whimsical quality. An old lady jumps in delight as an oversized die hurtles toward a teenage girl, dressed as a Valkyrie, whilst a bicycle courier, replete with lycra body stocking and medieval helm looks on with a sinking sense of resignation. Judging by what appears to be a fist full of euros in one hand one can only assume the old lady has wagered heavily on this unlikely event. Gaudi would have approved, Picasso would have approved.
