"…Such is certainly the most widespread appearance in our minds of those women having volunteered for fighting the military uprising against the Spanish Republic. Despite such look does respond partly to truth, for there actually arose a "revolutionary dress fashion" in Republican Spain following the uprising, it is not less true that these images also responded to the kind of appearance war reporters of the time were seeking. So becoming quite of a sketchy, mystified image.

In the end, one can reasonably understand such kind of overalls dressing in the first weeks of street fighting and turmoil… But, can any believe that such costume would be that widespread once the conflict had stabilized along regular front lines? Or after the hot, sunny Summer had given way to a less comfortable climate?…"

A nice figure, though I keep thinking there is something odd about her legs. Still, when these come out, it may be time to revisit the SCW.

I`ll be buying this set, hopefully some of the figures will be adaptable for Mexico and other South American liberation wars :)

Does anyone else find it odd that the figure looks nothing like the pictures attached?

Perhaps our good Tango01 should have published this other picture too:

¿Will you do these in 28mm tambien?

I'm afraid not --at a shortest term, at least.

For consistence, we ought to develop as fully as possible the 20mm range, prior to endeavouring any re-scaling.
