looks at a fast-assembly naval kit for the Age of Sail.
We've received some figures for an upcoming Showcase project, and thought you'd like to see the figures before we send them off to the painter.
In 1:72 scale, these are Minairons' Austrophile line infantry (musketeers) [20GSF003] for the War of the Spanish Succession.
There are four poses in the pack.
The white-metal figures are cleanly molded. Some of the scabbards have excess metal to trim, and one of our samples had some extra metal on the base bottom that will need to be removed. I count that as minimal prep work.
As the manufacturer's catalog listing explains, 'Austrophile' infantry in this case are Spanish or Austro-Catalan.
See our book review for a pro-Catalan fictional viewpoint of the campaign.
