    Hi everybody,

    To celebrate the 200 hundred anniversary of the Peninsular War and the Battle of Bailen, the Alabarda miniatures club (http://www.alabarda.net) have made a diorama representing the charge of the the French cuirassiers against the Spanish battery defended by two companies of Line Infantry. Overall, there are around 350 figures (30mm) modelled by Antonio Zapatero.

    Hope you enjoy it!

    This is one of the best dioramas in this scale (or in any scale) that I have ever seen.

    Since the figurines have been cast - are copies of them commercially available, and if so where can we order them?

    Hi all,

    Im glad you liked it. Its been quite a few months of hard work. At some point we thought we would never finish it, but with the WE coming closer everybody gave a last push to have it on time.

    le_touche, Im afraid we are not making copies of these figures. With so many different references it would have been a mess.

    Rgds,

    Paco
