Japanese troops for the Russo Japanese War of 1904-1905, 28mm
« on: 06 October 2011, 01:19:02 PM »
Hi guys,

Here's my own private miniature venture.    ;)

Japanese troops for the Russo Japanese War of 1904-1905. The first batch miniatures are meant to depict charging soldiers in the M1904 khaki uniform.

The guilty parties are the very talented Mr. Paul Hicks and the great guys at Griffin Moulds.
Last but not least the equally talented Mr. Simon Bradley is responsible for the great painted examples.





Command set charging (medical orderly, officer, NCO and casualty)


Troopers charging with bedrolls


Troopers charging without bedrolls

Future plans include a three man HMG team, four skirmishing/advancing and four firing/loading soldiers + an according command set. All in the M1904 uniform.

If you'd like to get some, I'm selling surplus castings at 7.50 Euros per set of four (4) miniatures and also a 'group deal' set consisting of one command set and four trooper sets of your choice (that's twenty miniatures all together) for 35.- Euros (+ the respective postage at cost, I live in Germany for the matter). (Please note that all miniatures are supplied UNPAINTED.)

Please send any orders to the following e-mail address, so it doesn't get mixed up:  tsuba-miniatures@gmx.de

Payment via PayPal please.

All comments welcome, of course, so do your worst.  ;D

PS: Please feel free to post this on other forums and help spread the word.  ;)

No kidding  :)

It's taking longer due to a few money issues  ::)

Mine are mainly for the Boxer Rebellion but can be used for early Russo-Japanese war. Please don't let this stop you though, it's always good to see the period bring represented  :)

Cheers,

I hope/plan to also get some Russians done after the next batch of Japanese (the above mentioned sets). The problem is, that Paul is very busy (although he doesn't seem to sleep at all, considering his output  o_o). But they are on the list.  ;)
