BT-5 Tank, Now Retooled

Not always it's all about creating and releasing brand new models. Sometimes, one must also seat, listen and think or even rethink things; and, as a result of such process, to spend some time, effort and money later to redo some parts, in order to improve already released model kits.

Such has been the case now of our 20GEV012 BT-5 Fast Tank, whose tracks had been made of resin so far. I'm happy to let you know that these are going to be white metal cast from right now on. Retooled kit is already fully available now.

Despite eventual mobility restrictions due to well known reasons, I wish to you all the best Christmas day possible!

New WSS Range First Sets!

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.

Upcoming Early Frigate

Our small Age of Sail 1/600 scale ships range keeps growing, at a slow pace but steadily. This in pictures is our upcoming release: a mid-17th century frigate, a boat design laying mid way between 16th century 'fast galleons' and 18th century proper frigates --or so it seems to me, at least. Swift and maneuverable, this is the kind of ship one would choose for naval scouting or privateering.

Model itself consists of 10 parts in total, with a hull resin and white metal rigging. Ultimate model kit is to be sold in box along with an appropriate flag sheet.

Worth to be noted that the assembled sample model in pictures has been slightly modified by attaching two pieces of wire for flagstaffs --one at stern, the other on mainmast.

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.
