Completed US infantryman, San Juan Hill, 1898

[valiant]

Hi Folks,

Some progress pics of my latest 120mm commission depicting a US Infantryman in charge at San Juan Hill in the Spanish American War, 1898. Sculpted in Milliput and Duro over a wire armature, still much to do. This figure will have a choice of weapon, either a Springfield or Krag rifle.

Thanks for looking in

Is this a private commission Steve, or for commercial release by a company?

It's planned to be commercial....

Interesting subject.
It would be interesting too, sculpt and produce a Spanish soldier of this period.

Cheers,

Francisco

Unfortunately, no....

personal sickness has prevented us from producing the figure, the molds are done and we hope to have it into production in early 2024. It is what it is, getting old sucks ;-)
