I'm really excited to announce release of the first two sets belonging to our projected War of Spanish Succession 1/72 scale figure range. These two sets stand for the renowned Austro-Catalan Mountain Fusiliers or 'Miquelets'; and comprise a 4 musketeers set, as well as a 3 figure command set - officer, horn blower and NCO.

Figures of this new range have been specifically designed for being compatible with Zvezda plastic miniatures, so being a bit larger than those of our already existing SCW range. Therefore, they should be considered as 'pure' 1/72 or 25mm, rather than 20mm.

I'm happy to announce release of a further 1/72 scale Spanish Civil War fighting vehicle, the Trubia A4 tank. Intended to replace the Renault FT-17 in active service, its development started by 1925 and included an innovative turret design in two independent sections, each one armed with a MG. By the outbreak of civil war four of these tanks had been built; three fell into Nationalist hands, while the fourth one was held by the Republican side.


Also, we have made available a new sets of War of Spanish Succession flags, at 1/56, 1/72 and 1/100 scales altogether. This is our first set devoted to Portuguese troops – their Marine Infantry Regiment to be precise.

All these are already available through our website.

Best regards,

Hello everyone, I'm happy to show you some of our most recent flag sets releases. One of such sets is related to the Littorio Division, a motorized unit belonging to the CTV Italian expeditionary corps to Spain during Spanish Civil War. Sets are sized to 1/100, 1/72 and 1/56 scales.

Secondly, two new sets devoted to War of Spanish Succession infantry flags – those of the Catalan Guards (the bodyguard and elite fighting regiment of Charles Habsburg) for instance:

As well as those belonging to the Spanish renowned Lombardy regiment, formerly known as “Tercio Viejo de Lombardía”:

Along with these two latter, I’ve also published a couple of small painting guides that also provide some information on history of uniforms, flags and the units themselves. Such guides are available at Minairons website as PDF files for free download.

And last, here you have a handful of 1/600 scale naval flags for Age of Sail modeling and gaming. This time most sets are related to some Mediterranean powers as Catalan, Majorcan, Sicilian and Maltese – but also English Republic and late Dutch (red instead of orange upper stripe) warships!

Hope you like them!

Upcoming WSS Figure Range

After a lot of time spent thinking around (years, actually!), this month I've finally taken the decision to start a new range of War of the Spanish Succession 1/72 figures, dedicated mainly to the too often forgotten peninsular armies; not just Philip d'Anjou's one, but also the army of Charles Habsburg - hopefully extending with time to Portuguese troops too, depending on this new range rate of success.

If interested in such range, please don't hesitate and write to us for suggesting new designs!
