Thanks Nap! It is based on several different paintings. I have depicted an Officer from Cheshire Regiment at Audregnies, 24 Aug 1914. By the moment I have not planned future figures. It all depends on demand. :)

I have finished the sculpting of my last -by now- 75 mm. figure: a British Officer in 1914. We will get the first copies the next week and the boxart painted by Jorge Fano in a near future. You can order it in http://www.miniaturasfortes.com/

Alll those badges are from Cavalry. Cazadores de Olivenza was a light Cavalry Regiment.

The collar badge was that of the regiment. Usually a letter or nothing at all. The Cazadores badge was the buglehorn on the chaco.

Great idea and execution!

Thanks!

Good work Eduardo! (y)

Thanks a lot Richie, for the kind words! :) Are you going to put the wide brimmed straw hat? That is a quite cool option.

Exactly! Fighting the Turkish Empire at Algeria. :)

Finally, I have painted the figure and we have th new box art for our spanish arquebusier:

Looking good! (y)

The 98K carbine was introduced in Spain after the Civil War (1943). The most usual weapon was the spanish Mauser 1893: http://svahistoria.blogspot.com.es/2012/11/el-mosqueton-mauser-espanol-modelo-1943.htm Hope that it helps.

Yes, Dan. It is an effect of the net: there are some inaccuracies that are multiplied ad infinitum. It is necessary to be cautious with all that kind of information. However, it is a nice figure and you just have to change the name. :)

Hi Dan. That is a great idea beutifully done. Now the bad news :happy: I was puzzled that a SMLE could end in the Spanish Civil War. I have made a short search in Google and found that the photo was taken in Haifa, 1951 by David Seymour. So she is an israeli girl...

I am working with a lot of referencies. The only thing that is for sure is that there were a lot of minor changes un the RN equipment in those years. Thanks everybody for looking!
