New 1/1200 Ironclads from Spithead

[sjwalker51]

Phil Ireson is working on a new range of 1/1200 Ironclads (French and possibly British) of the 1860-70’s, having completed his recent Lissa project.

Without much of a web presence, Spithead’s lovely models aren’t as well known as they should be. If you’re interested in supporting this project, please contact him direct at

(I’m not connected to Spithead, other than as a punter interested in adding this range to my collection)

They’re very nice

Look good but would be more interested in British

[sjwalker51]

British are already pretty well covered by Red Eagle Miniatures - these are intended to complement them, I understand.

As I asked on FB: are there any news on those Boshin War fleets he was working on?

[sjwalker51]

They’re on his ‘planned’ list but no more than that.

[OSHIROmodels]

Fingers crossed they come to fruition 

[sjwalker51]

Oshiro, get in touch with Phil, commit to buying them and he’s much more likely to get on with making them :-)

I'll drop him a line later today when I get back 

[Yuber Okami]

Tell him about my interest too!

Any news on this?
