Columna de Hierro - first pics

An exemple of SCW soldier with a sling ; in fact the box (on this picture) which he's throwing is not an explosive but is full of propaganda.



And you can see videos of dinamiteros with slings in "Mourir à Madrid" (by Frédéric Rossif) at about 23' :

Great looking figures.
I have be tempted for a long time to do SCW.
So far I have been able to talk myself out of purchasing some.

Wow. Slings.
Thanks Arlequin. What an interesting item of historical information. I like the minis even more now!

[Arlequín]

The SCW is full of interesting stuff, there's not often there isn't a 'wow factor' each time I read something new about it.

I really like your work! Very nice paintjobs... Inspiring!

[Alejandro]

They look great, good job, and exelent figures!

[Jehan]

Who are you going to paint for them to fight?

Yes... do tell. 

[Jehan]

Nobody !! 

In fact, two of my friends are currently painting guys of the Foreign Legion and the Guardia Civile. And a third want to begin CTV... I need heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp !! 

[Durutti]

Call in the International Brigades, and some nice Soviet armoured support

They'll kick the arse of the CTV 

Great to hear you've got some mates involved in collecting forces.

That's a real shame! Those lovely models need to see some action!

You need some Guardias de Asalto, as well armed as any opposition and formed from ex-soldiers. They even have some (poorly) armoured cars.

A small update : a 70/16 Schneider infantry gun with CNT-UGT crew.

[Arlequín]

That's come out really well.
