Which manufacturer of 28mm minis produce Spanish troops suitable for a peninsular campaign? Or what can I use to proxy?

Depending on how fussy you are, you could try Victrix's 1804 French in bicornes…?

Anything that looks like these.

Aamazing resource, the internet.

Try Google. Enter '28mm Spanish Infantry' or 'Spanish Napoleonic Infantry' in the field.

Capitan Miniatures, Eagle Miniatures and Front Rank. Capitan and Eagle are, size wise, compatible. Front Rank are bulkier and do not mix very well with the other two.

Connoisseur produce a range of 28MM Spanish also.

The Capitan figures are exquisite. I was looking at some that a friend ordered for his ongoing project.
Extremely well researched range.

The best are Brigade games, secondly Capitan and Front Rank (IMHO). Some of the Perry Carlist irregulars are also useful.

My Spanish are Front Rank, and I love them. They are amazing figures.

Thanks for the input. I think I just might try a box of Vitrix French 1804 and modify the plume.

We'll have some as part of our relaunch in June.

Part picture of one on the far right of this link to our new header. Just waiting on new moulds before we can get a few more photos ready.

I forgot.. Redoubt makes some largish 28MM.

Chouan30 Apr 2012 3:00 a.m. PST

Hat have been promising some for some time, a couple of years in fact, no idea when they'll be introduced though.

I would second the comment on Brigade Games which has released some nice line, grenadiers, and guerrillas as part of what promises to be a large range.

Northstar import Brigade Games figure ranges to the UK but I can't find any of the Napoleonic Spanish on their site. Does anyone know if they have stocked them or plan to in the future?
