AMFS show in Atlanta and commemorative figure!

Hi all!
Among our plans for February, we have a special collaboration with the Atlanta Military Figure Society. We have prepared a special commemorative Fahrenheit Miniature Project figure for the occasion!

Fahrenheit Miniature Project
FAH00025 – Sergeant, 5th Georgia “Clinch Rifles”, 1861

Sculpture: Eduard Pérez
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 8
Scale: 75 mm

The kit will be pre-released in exclusive for the 2019 AMFS show that will be hosted on February 15th to 17th at the Hilton Atlanta/Marietta Conference Center. The kit will include two choices of hat, a regular forage cap and a tall kepi. The second hat will be exclusive for the show version. The club is opening a reservation of the figure kit, to be picked up at the show, just in case you don’t want to miss your copy. The special price for the show is 45$ and you can contact them here to reserve it or ask for further information. We will be releasing it on a future date but without the optional exclusive headgear.

Fernando is starting now with the boxart version of the figure. His painted example will be donated for the silent auction hosted every year during the show and will post a SBS of it in our social media and online along this week, since online sites are really popular now a days, you can find useful information or even online games like slot online indonesia which is a great option for this.

We will be present at the show in collaboration with our exclusive American distributor, Scale 75 USA, so expect to be able to buy all our range of miniatures from his table. Also, Fernando has a seminar some days before the show:

See you all there!

Some new features and THE HOLIDAY SPECIAL PACK!

Hi everybody!
We are cooking some new releases on time for the Christmas season but, in the meantime, we have been working on a couple things…
First of all, our webshop has now wishlist feature!

Keeping in mind that our catalog is expanding all the time, we think this is a nice tool to help you keep track of everything…

Another novelty for the season is… (drumrolls)… THE HOLIDAY SPECIAL PACK!

Instead of creating predetermined seasonal offer packs that might be or not of your interest, we have decided to offer you this feature in which you can create your own pack, browsing through all the miniatures of our range. Mix items from different ranges, complete your collection with those exact pieces you are missing or buy multiples for you and a friend. It is up to you. 
Buying 2 to 4 items, you’ll get a 10% discount; buying 5 or more will get you a 20% discount. Also, a total above 150€ still qualifies for getting one of the exclusive free miniatures of course!

We have decided to offer this option early so everybody has the time to plan the Christmas purchases in advance. In any case, there will be more releases before the end of the year, including some surprises…

Also, a brief information about some new seminars that Fernando has planned for the next February in the United States:

The first one is going to be hosted in collaboration with SCALE 75 USA, our American exclusive distributor. It will be held on February 8th to the 10th weekend in Dallas, Texas. Send an e-mail to our distributor to get more information at scalesoldier@gmail.com.
The following one is being held in collaboration with the Atlanta Military Figure Society, from February 13th to 15th in Atlanta, Georgia. Send an e-mail to Mark Sprayberry to get more information at mark126804@gmail.com.

And that’s all for the moment. Have a nice week!

Updates on the upcoming painting seminars

Updates on the upcoming painting seminars

Hi all!
While we wait for the new releases, that are likely to be out soon, we wanted to update the information on the two seminars that currently we have on the reservation stage.
The first one is the one that Fernando will host on Toronto during the March 12th-13th weekend:

There’s only one spot left for that seminar, so you better hurry and contact the guys at The Bent Bristle if you are interested!

The seminar will be centred on painting busts and we will use a couple of minibusts, from a new Portraits line that will be released in March.This is a really good opportunity for you to learn more about everything that involve painting bust, the right colors and the right techniques to use on them. We really think you’ll enjoy them.

 

About the second seminar, it will happen 2 weeks later in Barcelona and it is the one we are hosting in collaboration with our friends from Nuts Planet and Life Miniatures:

Barcelona Painting Seminar: The Koreans Strike Back

Barcelona Painting Seminar: The Koreans Strike Back

Hi all!

Maybe you have heard about the painting seminar that Nut’s Planet, Life Miniatures and FeR Miniatures organized on last November at Seoul, Korea. It was such an awesome experience that we have decided to do it again but, this time in Europe and bringing our Korean partners as teachers!

We are hosting a figure painting class in Barcelona, with Sang-Eon-Lee and Myeong Ha Hwang. As you know, among other impressive achievements, they are the box-art painters of the amazing products by Life Miniatures and Nuts Planet respectively. Besides that, they work professionally for collectors, have painted for several other miniatures companies and have won numerous awards on international competitions.

This course is intended to demonstrate an incredibly cool and particular way of painting, which is starting to be known as the “Korean School”, through the best possible teachers brought straight away for that purpose from Asia. We are offering the possibility of participating in what could be a unique experience for the European figure painters.

As Barcelona is reasonably near to many parts of Europe by car, and even more by a quick flight, we consider it is the perfect location for such an event. Also, we have here the FeR miniatures support, the weather is quite friendly and the tourist offer is simply immense (lots of options for sightseeing, lodging, eating, shopping, things to do, etc…). For that reason, the seminar will be hosted in English and Spanish, as our aim is to open it for a European audience.

The method of instruction will be personal enough to adapt to anyone’s level, but we recommend that you at least know the basics about acrylic paints and figure painting. We count on both teachers and four additional assistant teachers, fluent in both Spanish and English, in order to ensure that everybody is reasonably taken care of.

The assistant teachers are the renowned painters Dani Serrano, Marc Masclans, Jaume Ortiz and Fernando Ruiz, so we think that the pupils are in good hands.
This workshop will consist of two intensive sessions over two days (a full weekend). The seminar will be centered in showing the teachers’ approach on painting a bust face with acrylics and maybe other areas if time allows. We will use two different busts, both future releases from each one of their companies.

The teachers will bring along the sample busts previously painted from Korea and will paint on another copy live, in order to demonstrate the techniques, and then will assist the pupils in turns with their own versions. Each teacher will use a different bust; one will do the teaching on Saturday and the other one will do it on Sunday. Also, we will count with the aid of video tutorials, with both English and Spanish subtitles, that will be used to help explain any possible doubt.

Included in the cost of the seminar will be both busts, the use of the sponsored paints and materials and the complimentary lunch for both days. Also, at the end of the seminar we will make available all the video tutorials used for each step.

The premises have room enough to host a small exhibition with works made by the teachers and the pupils, so you can have the chance to comment and get explaining of further techniques and doubts with in-hand examples.

Also we plan to do some other general activities in order to relax from the class hours and get the pupils to know each other in a good atmosphere of friendship and comradeship, like a pre-seminar party on Friday and a special dinner event for Saturday.
