Joshua Qualtieri has posted up a couple of photos of painted prototypes of the new plastic Quar.

And yes… I am as giddy as a kid on Christmas Eve when it comes to the Quar.

I struggle to find the words to express how happy I am about these. Not only for the conversion potential but the international access through Wargames Atlantic. Hopefully they will be successful with the additional exposure and can help inject funds into Zombiesmith to see the 28m Quar line grow in scope. Sailors, aviators, civilians….

It is the Quar and Anyaral: World of Twilight that prompted a complete change up of my projects and the subsequent clearout thread I am having.

I have a big order of metal 28mm Quar on the way from the States and Josh @ Zombiesmith says he will be releasing a bunch of new 28mm metal Quar sculpts as well as 28mm resin Tractors (Quar tanks) when the plastics are released…. hopefully before autumn.

And the Quar lore is just so good!

So very cute

A couple more preview photos from Zombiesmith and Wargames Atlantic that have come to my attention.

The first is of a new plastic model next to an older metal one. The plastics are a bit chunkier but should lend some more diversity to the Quar.

And my latest blog post…. this time focusing on my very slowly progressing Quar project t with its Anyaral and Imperial Skies offshoots…

Sorry to jump on the thread, but I'm trying to work out the weapons carried by. Fidwog squad (attempting to sort my 15mm Fidwog). I know they have smg/rifle, light/support mg and shotgun, just not the mix (crusader have a 3/7 split between heavy/standard rifle, with separate Heavy Weapon), for each squad (unable to find a download on spats, and the information I have does not cover infantry company (26 Quar - 6 command, 2x10 squad?)

Grumpy Gnome · « **Reply #39 on:** September 08, 2023, 06:37:14 AM »

Looking at page 69 of Spats…

Infantry Company

HQ - 6 Sketychs

Infantry Section
HQ - 2 Sketych

Each squad
9 Sketych
1 Bensalem F6

Infantry company would be 6 command in the Company HQ and then 44 troops in the Sections (4 squads and 2 section HQ's)

Thank you - just what I was after
Was trying to work out what weapons/squads were included in the 15mm starter. Looks like I have a Company HQ Section HQ with 1 squad, Cavalry Troop and Trench Squad (plus some extras).

Currently basing up and then will paint.

Glad to help.

I hope that one day we see 28mm versions of everything now available for 15mm.

Just had a nice catch up on your blog with my morning coffee.

I'm really looking forward to seeing your forces develop.

Cheers mate! I have had to devote a lot of my free time to clearing out cancelled project items. I like to get things to a certain state before getting rid of them. And it can be frustrating to keep postponing certain things, especially as my free time has been limited lately, but I am in it for the long haul. And I am always glad to hear when someone has enjoyed reading my blog.

I know I can be a bit of an over the top, extreme person. Passionate is a nice way to put it. And I am very passionate about the Quar. Them and their world are just such an excellent mix of so many things I like. I hope to one day get to the level of some of the other amazing Quar fans… like Laughing Ferret.
