Soon to be added to the Tsuba Russo-Japanese War range. Figures sculpted by Paul Hicks and Hotchkiss HMG by Ian Crouch :

Note that the set above is just a WiP : the front legs of the MG's tripod will be added later.

Paul has also started work on a pack of foraging - i.e looting - Russians dor the same period :

Looking good, Any chance of you doing a set of Japanese ammunition crates like the guy is holding in the mg set? They would be pretty useful for dioramas and terrain for this and later periods.

According to the Tsuba blog, the ammo crate was designed by Ebob to be used with both the HMG crew and the previously released mule below :

I suppose that if enough people write him to ask for a separate pack of ammo crates, Markus might consider adding it to his catalogue.

The Japanese HMG set along with the mounted and dismounted cavalry packs are now in production and available from Empress Miniatures in the UK - and direct from Tsuba as well as soon as Markus updates his webpage.
