FeR Miniatures New Releases… and Miniatures Day!

Aug 5, 2021

Hi everybody!
Too many things to talk about that I don’t know where to start… I think we beat our own mark of amount of new releases for a single month this time with EIGHT new articles. Actually, if you consider that the Celts boxed set is composed of 3 busts, it actually makes it TEN new releases! And all in time for tomorrow’s Miniatures’ Day!

OK, bit by bit. Let’s check the new stuff first.

First of all, some new 54 mm figure by our collaborator Eduard Pérez.

54 mm Collector Series
DZS00011 – Volontario Garibaldino, 1859

Sculpture: Eduard Pérez
Painting: Jaume Ortiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 7
Scale: 54 mm

Also, some new re-releases for our Elite Classics collection.

Elite Classics
ELI00028 – Officer, Royal Horse Artillery, 1842

Sculpture: Juan Carlos Ávila
Painting: Alfonso Prado
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 8
Scale: 54 mm

Elite Classics
ELI00029 – Attila the Hun

Sculpture: Mike Good
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 7
Scale: 75 mm

These two are long out of production kits that surely will delight the fans of classic miniatures. Let’s check some new sci-fi stuff now, a really bad-ass addition to our Future is Now line.

Future is Now
FIN00004 – USMC Drill Sergeant, 2075

Sculpture: Pedro Fernández
Painting: Marc Masclans
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 5
Scale: 1/10

And also the big release for this month, this impossibly cool vignette of 1/12 busts for Magna Historica, depicting the last battle of Vercingetorix and the Gauls against the mighty armies of Rome.

Magna Historica
MHB01004 – The Last Stand, Alesia, 52 BC

Sculpture: Ramón Martínez
Painting: Alfonso Giraldes
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 31 (including the exclusive hound bust)
Scale: 1/12

OK, let’s talk for a second about this one. This limited edition boxed set is a pre-release of three busts based on the last battle of the Celtic Gaul that will be released separately next month (we simply couldn’t resist the temptation of having them available for the Miniatures’ Day).
It includes Vercingetorix, a young Gallic warrior, and a Gallic standard-bearer, along with an exclusive bust of a Celtic hound. It also includes a QR code that grants access to extensive video tutorials on the painting of this boxed set by Alfonso Giraldes that will be available starting in September. The box is limited to only 100 sets and comes with a limited edition certificate. Keeping in mind that it comes out just in time for the Miniatures’s Day, when you have the special 20% discount, we think it will sell out fast. So, if you like these busts, don’t miss tomorrow’s chance of getting them in advance, cheaper, with the exclusive hound bust, and including FREE access to the painting video tutorials of the boxarts.

What more do we have? Oh, yes, another pair of minibusts for the always popular line of Portraits from the Middle Ages.

Portraits from the Middle Ages
PMA00007 – Oeselian Warrior, Muhu, 1227

Sculpture: Paul Deheleanu
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 3
Scale: 1/16

Portraits from the Middle Ages
PMA00008 – Livonian Brother of the Sword, Muhu, 1227

Sculpture: Paul Deheleanu
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 2
Scale: 1/16

This new pair is centered in the Baltic Crusades, featuring a pagan Estonian warrior and a Germanic knight from a not-so-well-known order, the Livonian Brothers of the Sword. As they engage in epic battles and strategic maneuvers, the pagan warrior proudly wields a real Viking sword, adding an authentic touch to the historical narrative. Closing the ranks, another long-awaited piece, the continuation of the Four Seasons collection, seamlessly weaves together the intricate stories of these characters and their weapons.

Women, by Pepa Saavedra
WOM00010 – Autumn

Sculpture: Pedro Fernández
Painting: Pepa Saavedra
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 2
Scale: 1/10

These are the new releases. Let’s talk about the elephant in the room, the Miniatures’ Day.

The offer will work as follows:

– The offer starts on Friday, August, 6th at 10:00 AM (Spanish time, GMT +1) and will end on Saturday, August, 7th at 10:00 AM (Spanish time, GMT +1).

This year we have prepared a special feature, a live Miniatures’ Day presentation streaming in collaboration with our friends from Miniature Art TV.

The streaming will start this evening at 8 PM Spanish time (7 PM UK time) and we have some special surprises in store, like special guests, live interviews, and a crazily exclusive give-away for the viewers, the very first copy (number 00) of The Last Stand boxed set. Do you want to win it? Then don’t miss the streaming, where we will explain how you can participate. It will happen on Miniature Art TV’s Youtube Channel.

Not much more to say I guess. Get ready for tomorrow and see you later on the streaming!

Cheers

FeR Miniatures New Releases

Jan 28, 2021

Hi everybody!
Finally, we have everything ready for this new bunch of releases. This time we have gone completely medieval, with really cool stuff that we hope you’ll find interesting!
Let’s check them out 😉

First of all, a new bust for Magna Historica, this time a very well known historical character but portrayed in an unusually accurate way:

Magna Historica
MHB00028 – Sir William Wallace, Stirling Bridge, 1297

Sculpture: Ramón Martínez
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 9 (including both choices of sword and head)
Scale: 1/12

This new bust comes with two options of head and two different swords so you can customize your own version and create almost any European knight around 1300. Keeping this in mind, Alfonso Giraldes made a second version with the alternative parts, in order to showcase the possibilities:

Also, we have a new couple of 1/16 Portraits from the Middle Ages! This really popular line gets reinforcements with two iconical characters from the period:

Portraits from the Middle Ages
PMA00005 – Richard I, the Lionheart, Arsuf, 1191

Sculpture: Paul Deheleanu
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 6
Scale: 1/16

Portraits from the Middle Ages
PMA00006 – Saladin, Sultan of Egypt and Siria, Arsuf, 1191

Sculpture: Paul Deheleanu
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 4
Scale: 1/16

That’s all that comes regarding new releases, but we want to take the opportunity to talk about some more things.

As some of you might already have noticed, we are not carrying anymore Maxime Penaud’s line, The Secret Workshop:

Sometimes life takes you to a different path and it gets complicated to proceed with a certain project as intended. Maxime is a nice guy and a really talented artist, so we look forward to seeing what he comes up with next.

Also, we wanted to remind you that we are conducting a clearance sale of a few miniatures of our catalog:

At a 40% discount, we believe it is a fantastic opportunity to grab some figures before they are gone forever! Get yours before it is too late, as the offer will last while there are stocks remaining.

And that’s all for the moment. We hope you all enjoy the new releases!
Cheers
