New Releases
WY-12 SANTA´S DISGUISE
DOESN´T WORK..
Material: Metal
Scale: 54 mm 1/32
It seems someone has rumbled Santa! Our canine best friend isn’t
acting like it in this Vignette – and it seem the tempting treat that’s being
offered in exchange isn’t working either!!
This set comes with parts for the base, ladder, presents and
of course Santa and his best mate. The kit can come in unpainted and a painted
form as seen here by Diego Ruina.
S15-F05 PROVINCIAL
SAMURAI 1160
Material: Metal
75MM/1/22nd
This Bare-legged bodyguard seems to not be one to lose his
head! Seen in full battle armour ( apart
from his pants it seems) he is carrying his long pike/sword and also the head
of a vanquished enemy.
The Samurai’s helmet and armour look resplendent painted up
here and one can only guess why he is still hanging on to that old head – If you
would like to paint your own of course the kit comes in Painted and unpainted
versions.
Black Hawk Series
The Black Hawk series is a set of figures that come
pre-painted to make into a large diorama. It seems someone has been watching
the new series of the Hatfield’s & McCoy’s – as this new collection of
figures features all of the players in the famous “OK Corral” shoot-out scene so
popular with western fans – they have even made a short video of it…

November releases from Andrea Miniatures
SG-S18 (CATHAGINIAN WAR ELEPHANT DOWN
(ZAMA, 202 BC.)
Scale: 54mm
Material: White metal
Sculpted by: Miniaturas Andrea
Painted by: Julio Cabos
This figure in 54mm (1/32scale) shows a scene of the battle
for Zama in 202 BC. This is the last battle in the Carthaginian War in which
Scipio Africanus beat the forces of the terror of ancient Rome the General
Hannibal.
The Romans used the strength of Hannibal’s elephants against
his own army – the Romans startled them with horns and flame spikes and arrows
– some of these large beasts turned and fled into their own ranks – allowing
the roman cavalry to attack from the sides and therefore causing the mercenary
army of Hannibal to be broken and flee. This ended the Punic Wars and Carthage
as a world power.
This figure shows a massive elephant of Carthage – the
beasts four riders are leaping out as a brave Roman spearman goes under the
beast to spear it n the underside. This sculpt shows amazing detail and can be
bought painted or unpainted – the picture here show the master Julio Cabos’
work here to good effect
Scale: 80mm
Material: White metal
Sculpted by: Nelya Vitvitska
Painted by: Julio Cabos
This lovely lady – number 27 in the “Pin Up” series is
sculpted by Nelya Vitvitska and in the painted figure instance again by the
talented hand of the master Julio Cabos. The figure itself is sold as a painted
or unassembled unpainted kit – your choice
I would assume most of us would want to get out hands on her
and do it ourselves! The lady in question has been “caught” by some prickly
flora – this is a great representation of well-done Pin-Up art in the style of
Vargas and others - and I for one love it!
All of these figures are now available from the Andrea Miniatures site and from your local hobby dealer (the good ones that is)
Previous news from Andrea Miniatures...
On our recent trip to Euro
Militaire we were treated to a Masterclass by none other than the legendary
Julio Cabos who gathered quite a
crowd giving lessons on figure painting – we felt really privileged to be able
to watch this master at work – we also loved to see some of Andrea Miniatures figures painted and on display at the event –
including some very large versions of figures we know well.. Did I forget to mention Andrea Miniatures have some great
new figures coming out this month?
Andrea Miniatures At the Euro on Display
Some fo the figures painted by Julio and others from Andrea were on display at the show...

July Releases from Andrea Miniatures
Built in ten parts of lusciously sculpted white metal this
figure of a real charmer (punTM.) is pretty neat – Sculpted as usual of many
of Andrea Miniatures figures by the very sharp eyed Nelya Vitvitska and in this instance painted by the no less
talented Julio Cabos.
Sculpted in 80MM -1/22scale (and not much else) this lil’
lass tries her hand at an Indian rope trick. She is in classic looking 50’s negligee
as she sits there in her towel while she performs her trick
The figure comes in painted and unpainted flavours and if
this is what you get painted I may be tempted. The pillow and the basket are of
course supplied and I had better leave it at that before I say too much more –
it is a great looking figure though!
This figure of the soon to be most important man in Rome
celebrates his victories over the Gauls in 52BC – this was the year the romans
defeated Gauls led by Vercingetorix at the Battle of Alesia, thus breaking the
back of the Gallic insurrection. The final pacification of Gaul became complete the
following year.
5 white metal casting parts for assembly and painting are
the kit’s contents – in 54MM(1/32) this tiny figure comes painted or unpainted
in it’s original form.
Sculpted by Joaquín Palacios and in this case painted by Elías
Alonso this figure looks great in the way Joaquin has sculpted the drapes on Caesars
body and his elaborate gladius – his short
stabbing sword.
Both of these figures are now available from the Andrea Miniatures site
and from your local hobby dealer (the good ones)
June Releases from Andrea Miniatures
Andrea Miniatures has a book coming out: (AP-044I) “Inside the Allgemeine SS: 1925-1945” - the most significant collection of Allgemeine-SS artifacts ever assembled in one box - By Ulric of England

This white metal figure in 1/24(75MM) scale is the fourth in
Andréa Miniature’s “Samurai” series” – in this case the metal was sculpted by Nelya
Vitviska
Of course you can get this sculpture painted as well and
this particular one was brought to life by master painter Julio Cabos. He has
done a great job on making the Ronin look lifelike in 1/24th scale,
his long spear and Katana look impressive as does his facial expressions and
muscle tone especially.
In white metal this figure was sculpted by Joaquín Palacios
in 1/32(65MM) scale
The Firereach Commander is part of the “Dark Nova” series of
figures tilted at science fiction and war gaming fans – though most fellas I met
like the “figure” without knowing the story behind her.
This figure was painted here by Elias Alonso who has done a
great job of rendering the scale effect in colour and shading. This will
certainly be a good seller.
Till next month keep an eye on their site for more news or just
check back here – well keep you updated!

March Releases from Andrea Miniatures
The Ashigaru were the foot-borne soldiers of the who fought for their Samurai in feudal Japan against the Mongol invasion and indeed each other's clans to gain superiority and power in the middle ages. This soldier is a figure in the Samurai series from Andrea Miniatures
Sculpted by Ángel Terol in White metal this 75mm figure is painted in this instance by the very talented Julio Cabos who show this warrior with his Nagana and layered extremely tough armour. His armour is less ornate than his master the samurai who's land they probably lived on and worked when not in military service. These soldiers were Japan's first attempt at the foot solider.
Part of the famous - and need I say very popular PYN-UP series from Andrea Miniatures is this the latest of their series number 25 which will be released soon.
Bottoms up!
PIN-UP 25 is made in 80mm white metal and painted by Nelya Vitvitska - who I must say has a great eye for detail! Julio Cabos has painted this beauty so very lifelike it looks like an old picture from a 50's magazine - excellent ring-tone!
Bottoms up!
These figures will be available soon from the Andrea Miniatures site
