The British (Legion) Are Coming

Things are now picking up speed with my new little project that is Orinoco Miniatures. The first box of multiple packs of the British Legion figures should now be with me by 27th May. These will be available for order straight away by e-mail request, as I can then send a PayPal money request for orders and then post them out.

There will be an e-Shop for Orinoco Miniatures set up over the next week or so to make the process much easier for all, once I have the hosting arrangements ironed out. Now all that is required are eager customers :-).

As you can see, there is also now an official logo for the range. Fear not mis valientes, there will be more interesting developments and new figures in the near future to follow up the British Legion, so keep your eyes peeled on the Orinoco blog.

South American Wars of Liberation reading and gaming guides

I was out yesterday in my local supermarket in Prague, looking for an easy white for dinner, when I found this lovely and had to laugh - vina MAIPO - we have the wine, we have the battle, now we just need the figures...

 

Anyway, as part of my new venture into the realms of all things South American (well in 28mm at least), I've posted up a review of books and campaigns guides over at my Orinoco Miniatures blog (http://orinoco-miniatures.blogspot.cz/)

All cut-and-thrust kinda stuff, so please do pop over and have a look. Cheers!

Orinoco / Perry Miniatures 28mm scale comparison

For those that are interested in a scale comparison of the new 28mm Liberation Wars figures, please see below 2 new generic flank company sculpts (WIP) compared to a Perry Miniatures Plastic French Miniature.

As you can see the scale really is compatible, especially for those who have built up forces already in this scale.  These also  match up very well against Victrix miniatures as well. Please bear in mind that the two greens are still a work in progress. I hope you like them.
