Hi all!
It’s being a busy week! We have a new figure to release but we are also in the middle of some big project that will be out next week. OK, let’s get focused, hehehe. First of all the new release of this week, another classic from Elite Miniaturas that comes back in an all-new revised edition in resin:
Elite Classics
ELI00007 – Lansquenet, 1525
Sculpture: Mike Blank
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 6
Scale: 54 mm
Besides this, we have started showing some sneak pics of a project we have been working on for some time:
Just from the pics it is very difficult to tell what the subject might be, so it is somewhat a mysterious thing in which you’ll still need to do a lot of guessing (just joking). Check our Facebook or Instagram to learn more about it during these days. In any case, the busts will be available on our website next week.
We’ll update you on this very soon!
Cheers

Hi all!
As we were saying last week, we have moved to a new format in what it comes to new releases. Due to the increasing number of miniatures we have planned to add to our catalogue, from now onward we are releasing them in a weekly basis instead of monthly. So, as promised, here is another release…
This time, we have another classic miniature from the legendary Elite Miniaturas and it seems we are starting re-releasing the long unavailable Franco-Prussian War collection!
Elite Classics
ELI00006 – Lieutenant, 1st Zouave Regt
Sculpture: Stefano Cannone
Painting: Fernando Ruiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 8
Scale: 75 mm
There will be another release next week, so stay tuned!
Besides this, I would like to send a reminder about my upcoming seminars in Atlanta. Seats are beginning to run low on both! Let’s remind the details:
So if you are thinking on joining but you are still unsure, send an email to fer2018paint@gmail.com and you’ll get all details.
Talk soon!

Hi all!
We are ready and happy to announce the new releases for the Christmas season!
First of all, good news! We make available to the general public the special pre-released figures we prepared for Scale Model Challenge 2017.
Elite Classics
ELI00005 – Highland Clansman Veteran
Sculpture: Raúl García Latorre
Painting: Marc Masclans
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 12
Scale: 70 mm
Women, by Pepa Saavedra
WOM00004 – Viviane
Sculpture: Ramón Martínez
Painting: Pepa Saavedra
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 4
Scale: 1/10
And also we have two more brand new figures…
First one is a new addition to Oriol Quin’s line of Medieval subjects:
Clash of Cultures – Deus Vult!
COC00009 – French Knight, Albigensian Crusade, 1209
Sculpture: Oriol Quin
Painting: Marc Masclans
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 12
Scale: 75 mm
And the second, another cool 54 mm fantasy figure by Jonatán Monerris!
Peter Punk Produktions
PPK00015 – Elora, the Gnome Heroine
Sculpture: Jonatán Monerris
Painting: Marc Masclans
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 2
Scale: 54 mm
Also, we have an important announcement concerning one of our lines.
As you know, we carry many different lines of miniatures. Some of them are our own, some of them belong to collaborators of the company. Some of the lines get constant updates in the form of new releases, some others don’t get new releases so often. This last case can happen because of many reasons, projects that get more priority than others, artists who can devote more or less time at a certain moment to a certain line and many other underlying reasons. So, some of the lines can even get to a halt, if we don’t foresee how to continue them in the near future.
This is exactly the situation that we have with our Signature Series: Mike Blank. We have discussed the current state of affairs with Mike and even if everything is as friendly as usual, due to his work and family obligations he cannot cope with the responsibility of accepting more commissions from us in order to keep the line active.
The option we have found that better suits the interest of the artist, the company and the general public is to sell our existing range of Mike Blank figures to a third party, in this case, SK Miniatures. With that move, we solve the problem of continuity of the line (that by the way was impossible to continue by any other artist without changing completely its nature), our friend Steve Kirtley will add three nice miniatures to his already existing range of Mike Blank’s 70 mm figures, and the models are still on sale to the general public (it would have been a pity to discontinue them).
Here is the link to SK Miniatures page, you will be able to find the figures there very shortly, as they will be the new exclusive distributors of them.
That’s all for the moment!
Have a Merry Christmas

Hi all!
This month is being really busy, thankfully we’ll have the chance to meet up with the friends and relax a bit this upcoming weekend at Scale Model Challenge! But, first of all, lets talk about the new releases 😉
The first one is a new XVII century work by Eduard Pérez.
Fahrenheit Miniature Project
FAH00015 – “Le Cavalier”
Sculpture: Eduard Pérez
Painting: Jaume Ortiz
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 9 plus photoetched parts
Scale: 75 mm
A really nice kit that includes a novelty for the company, photoetched parts! This kind upgrade allows a very nice degree of detail on tiny parts like the spurs, sword lace and such, that would be almost impossible for a just resin (or metal) kit.
We also have the first two figures from the new collaboration line of Romain Van Den Bogaert!
Signature Series: Romain Van Den Bogaert
ROM00001 – The Old Count
Sculpture: Romain Van Den Bogaert
Painting: Romain Van Den Bogaert
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 1
Scale: 1/10
Signature Series: Romain Van Den Bogaert
ROM00002 – Grok the Marauder
Sculpture: Romain Van Den Bogaert
Painting: Romain Van Den Bogaert
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 4
Scale: 1/10
We are really happy to finally show you these two. We will show you the painted version very soon (by Romain himself!), as he prefers to show them first unpainted to appreciate the detail of the bare sculpt.
So these are the releases for October but… wait, there’s more!
As this weekend we’ll go to SMC in The Netherlands, we wanted to do something special for our friends and customers going there. The first idea was like “OK, let’s give an overall discount just for the show” and, “Well, we also are the ones carrying the Nutsplanet sales table there, let’s extend that discount to their miniatures too”. So, the result is that you will have a 10% discount in ALL FeR Miniatures and Nutsplanet products during the weekend.
Even if we know that discounts are appreciated, we thought “Mmm… Too easy. Needs to be more interesting”. So, we’ve made an extra effort and prepared a very limited stock of two future releases, 50 of each, to be sold in advance only at this weekend at SMC!
The first one is this fantastic new bust for Women by Pepa Saavedra, nothing more and nothing less than the haunting Lady of the Lake in person!
Women, by Pepa Saavedra
WOM00004 – Viviane
Sculpture: Ramón Martínez
Painting: Pepa Saavedra
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 4
Scale: 1/10
The other is possibly, the most anticipated comeback in the history of the miniature hobby. This one needs no presentation…
Elite Classics
ELI00005 – Highland Clansman Veteran
Sculpture: Raúl García Latorre
Painting: Marc Masclans
Material: Resin
Number of parts of the kit: 12
Scale: 70 mm
So. How does this works?
We’ll start selling these five new miniatures this weekend, at the SMC show in The Netherlands. The first 3 are the releases for October and also will be available from next Tuesday as usual (sorry, but if we want to guarantee a good customer service for them, we need to wait until our return before we start selling them). Viviane and the Clansman Veteran are a PRE-RELEASE edition, limited to 50 copies each just for the weekend. They won’t be available to the rest of the public until a future date yet to be determined, even if we return with any leftover stock. Let’s face it, we have to encourage attendance to shows, even if it means using some innocent blackmailing tactics, hehehe.
So, are you coming to SMC and you don’t want to risk missing them? We have opened a reservation list for picking up the kits there. Just send us an email to info@ferminiatures.com with your name, which figure you want (even both!) and how many you need (maybe you pick one for you and one for a friend). We will reserve you the kits so you just have to drop by and get them… of course, included in the discount offer!
IMPORTANT NOTE: All figures reserved and not yet claimed at Sunday afternoon (after lunch time) will be put on sale.
Looking forward to see you all there
