Painted Samples

I managed to paint up some of the new master castings:







Hopefully these will get into production moulds and be released for sale in the new few weeks

Finally: An Update

The summer seems to have flown by and I've had no chance to devote any time to the Little Wars Revisited project, not even managing to spend any time painting. Now, I have managed to get some new castings into moulds.

There are a number of new heads and arms and bodies which enable to now produce the following castings - examples here are very quickly stuck together to get an idea of all the possibilities:

LINE INFANTRY


These are a Standard Bearer, Infantry trooper and Officer.

FUSILIERS



Again: Standard, Officer and Trooper.

RIFLE BRIGADE



Trooper and Officer

GRENADIER GUARD




A new Standard Bearer to go with the existing trooper and officer.

ARTILLERYMEN




Artillery crew in Shirtsleeve order for some variation - a Home Service Artillery head for these will follow as well.

I have also had the horse blank for the cavalry and the first cavalry are currently being sculpted. The horse looks like this:



This lot gives me everything I need for the infantry side of Army Red so I am hoping to get on with production moulds and painting in order to get the units done by the end of the year if possible.

First Set Available

The first Little Wars Revisited Glossy Set is now available an in the Black Hat shop




SET 1001 Grenadier Guards

I have also received a large number of new masters for new arms, heads and amended bodies so hope to get those moulded next week. They also include the first multi-part horse so we can start on the cavalry.

First Glossy Set nearly ready

The first glossy set we are releasing under the "Little Wars Revisited" name is nearly ready to go. I've received the boxes and foam and made up a sample box.



These will be released in June with a set every two months after that to test the waters.

I'm waiting on a whole load of new sculpts for the next set of releases which will also let me get on with painting the 60 Line Infantry I need.

First Unit underway

This is the first infantry unit - the Grenadier Guards - 12 figures painted so far...

Peter Cushing and Little Wars

I was very intrigued to see this video clip from Pathe news:

PETER CUSHING

Which shows Peter Cushing playing Little Wars...

New Castings now available

The four new castings are now available in the Black Hat Miniatures shop. These are:



British Grenadier Guard Officer





Three artillery in shirts, bareheaded.
