News from studio "Siberia - miniatures"

[cuprum]

Here a photo of already ready figures basmachis. Work on other miniatures proceeds. In total in a series there will be 12 different figures.
Photos I show black-and-white as I prefer to use in work various materials with different properties. But these materials of different colour and a detail are badly visible in a colour photo.

Some beautiful work!

Will they be released as a unit or with there be any available seprately? Perhaps some sort of command figure mounted and on foot?

[cuprum]

If you get figures directly at me, I am ready to complete any figures according to your desire.
These miniatures will be on sale complete sets from 3 figures. 3 х 4 = 12 different figures in 4 complete sets.
1 complete set - command. In it there will be 1 figure of the commander, 1 standard-bearer and 1 younger commander.
Post termination works over horse basmachis there will be begun a series of the pedestrian basmachis.
The painted figure is a figure from "Copplestone Castings". For comparison of scale with my figures.

Now those are very nice. I think you have single handedly resusciatated my interest in this period. I look forward to the finished product.

Bloody wonderful!!!

*nodnod* I, with my foppish ways, have started to look at Siberia Miniatures as rather select collectors items.

[Leapsnbounds]

 The figures are superb.  They seem to have a lot of character.  I am looking forward to adding them to my Russian Civil War Wargame Armies.

Great figures on brilliant horses! Much better than the Copplestone "ponies" ...

You mean horses that actually look like scraggy steppe ponies?

The traditional steppe horse is a pot bellied wee thing, with stiff mane and shaggy hide. He does not look much as a horse. But that's because they are bred for endurance, not beauty.

No, I meant that Mark Copplestone - although he is one of my all-time-favourite sculptors - is not very good at sculpting horses. All his horses look like steppe ponies!

Quite amazing! Congratulations on such excellent work!

Outstanding!

Cuprum,

I see you also plan a series of figures for "Yermak" and his conquest of Siberia. There is a large range of Muscovite and Tartar figures already available from TAG. Could I suggest that you make the Yermak range compatible?

That way, the collector could use 1 range to supplement the other.

[cuprum]

Certainly, I will try to make these figures as much as possible compatible.
Work on a series figures "Yermak" will be begun upon termination of works on a series on the Polish-Soviet war.

Thanks! I would be happy to post the link on the relevant discussion boards when you have some WiP ready to show!
