On your knees serf!
Nobles and Lords with their Servants are here in Halcyon Miniatures third round of 28mm sci-fi releases. See the article for five new poses plus accessories pack and value saver sets.
Great in any system and with our Alternate Stars and Ion Age ranges too.
Thanks!
Brigade are from Maidstone – the one in Kent, the Garden of England, rather than any of our namesakes in the USA, Canada or Australia ! As part of our Small Scale Scenery range we’re starting to recreate a few notable local buildings from the town and surrounding area in 1/1000th scale, and today we have a couple of new ones – we’ve titled this pair ‘Art Deco Commercial Buildings’.
The first is a large Car Showroom – we’ve based this on an edifice known locally as the Rootes Building after the company that originally built it in the late 1930s (although it’s officially called Len House). It’s currently unoccupied but for years was home to a franchise of a well-known French car manufacturer. It’s now a Grade-II listed structure, and there are plans to turn it into apartments with shopping and dining facilities.
The second building will bring back memories for local gamers and modellers, even if you don’t immediately recognise it. It’s another Art Deco building, this time an L-shaped block of shops with flats above. It’s based on Granada House, which used to be the home of Hubble and Freeman’s toy shop, which is where the two of us spent considerable amounts of pocket money on various plastic kits, paints and other bits and pieces during a mis-spent youth.
SSS-8211 – Art Deco Commercial Buildings – £4.00
Now back to new stuff.
Hopefully no more interruptions and a steady release schedule shall be restarted.
The export version on the Italian CV35 tankette:
We are pleased to announce the release of a whole new series of Building Tiles, D-Day Defences and Landing Craft for our WWII 3mm Western Front Range, which is now WWII 3mm Western Front & D-Day.
The buildings, defences and ships in this rollout featured in our 6mm Race to Caen D-Day Grand Tactical Game featuring Sword, Juno and Gold Beaches, first shown at Joy of Six Game last year. It's been a long time in the waiting and finding time to master and mould the defences and buildings onto tiles of their own, turned out to be longer than planned, but at long last we are there.
This range is suitable for 3mm games set in the 20th Century with many pieces also being suitable for much of the 19th Century in a skirmish scale or larger. As mentioned above they are also usable for larger scaled games, especially Grand Tactical games in 6mm during the same period.
Not to everyone's taste, many are now using smaller scale buildings compared to the figures in their Grand Tactical Games and it can work extremely well, allowing urban areas of many buildings arranged in streets, opposed to just a few buildings representing a town/village.
From time to time Gringo 40's like to show painted sample of recent releases, in this case a 28mm Spanish Colonial Artillery from our most recent release being:
Site code NA01 a Naval Type Bronze 4-Pounder Cannon Model of a 4-Pounder Naval Cannon typical of the type used on the walls of Presidios (Spanish Fortifications) in the 18th Century with attendant crew.
Can be used from 1700 to circa 1885.
regards,
Ged.
