New 1:100 Sd.Kfz. 8 tractor

15GMV007

We are proud to share a new WWII model kit in 1:100th scale, the German Sd.Kfz. 8 tractor. Once again, this one is a DLP 3D printed model kit consisting of just two parts: main body and optional tarpaulin. This new product is born thanks to patronage via Patreon with the Ukrainian designer Panzer Printer.

Just a latest hour wish to all our kind followers and customers, for a prosperous and happy New Year!

1:144 Henschel Hs-123 dive bomber

10GEA004

Minairons miniatures' 1/144 scale SCW aircraft range keeps growing at a steady pace: this week it has seen the addition of Henschel Hs-123 (commonly nicknamed 'Angelito' in Spain). Operated by Germany, China and Spain, this robust, durable and resistant to severe weather biplane dive bomber saw continued front-line service until 1944.

Just as previous models in this range, our Henschel Hs-123 comes to life thanks to the co-operation with Plane Printer designer via Patreon. It retails in box as a single piece DLP 3D-printed miniature, so requiring no assembly at all. Box reverse includes a comprehensive painting guideline.

This is probably going to be our last announcement before Christmas weekend, so let me take advantage of this thread for wishing to you all a best Christmas Day. Enjoy it!

Cannone da 105/28, now for 15mm

15GEG007

I'm happy to show you our latest Spanish Civil War product at 1/100 scale: the Ansaldo Cannone da 105/28, widely used by Italy in WW2 and SCW.

Unlike its 1/72 scale counterpart, which is white metal cast in several parts to be assembled, this new cannon is DLP 3D-printed as a single piece, so requiring no assembly at all.

1:144 Hawker-Hispano 'Fury' fighter

10GEA006

I'm pleased to show our latest 1:144th scale Spanish Civil War aircraft, the Hawker-Hispano 'Fury' (perhaps better known as Spanish Fury). This elegant biplane won the 1935 contest to replace Nieuport 52 as the main fighter of Spain. However, the Civil War early outbreak prevented the Republican Air Force to have enough of them available.

Just as previous models in this range, our Hawker Hispano is born thanks to the co-operation with Plane Printer designer through Patreon. It retails in box as a single piece DLP 3D-printed miniature, so requiring no assembly at all. Box reverse includes a thotoughful painting schema.

1:144 Heinkel He-112 fighter

I'm delighted to present our latest 1:144th scale Spanish Civil War aircraft --the ill-known Heinkel He-112, main competitor to Messerschmitt Bf-109 for the 1933 Luftwaffe fighter contract. Despite losing the contest, small numbers of it were nonetheless used by Germany for a short time and several more were acquired by Spain, Hungary and Romania. Japan also purchased and used about a dozen He-112s before giving priority to the Mitsubishi A6M 'Zero'.

10GEA011

Just as previous models in this range, our He-112 is born thanks to the co-operation with Plane Printer designer through Patreon. It retails in box as a single piece DLP 3D-printed miniature, so requiring no assembly at all. Box reverse includes a painting schema and markings guide.

10GEA011

It is already available at Minairons' website. Hope you like it!

Notice to British customers

The enforcement of Brexit in matters of import/export between EU and UK has, without a doubt, had a huge impact on our consumption habits: in addition to the ever increasing transport costs, we have now the interference of Customs services - with the delays and taxes that their job entails.

For all those of our dear British customers who are rightfully worried by those growing drawbacks, I'm happy to acknowledge you have now McKeeman Models at your disposal for ordering Minairons Miniatures stuff within the UK.

Aids

Based in Dunfermline (Fife, Scotland), they have been performing as a retailer of Minairons' stuff from a long since, albeit focused mainly on our 1:72nd scale ranges so far. Despite of this, Stephen from McKeeman Models will be eager to take orders from other Minairons' ranges. As a matter of fact, they've already just imported some of our 1:100th stuff within their latest backorder.

McKeeman Models can be accessed via website (www.mckeemanmodels.com), eBay, Amazon and Facebook (www.facebook.com/McKeemanModels). Do not hesitate to contact them if needed, for they will be happy to kindly assist you!

Some downloads, and Newsletter #66 out

Once back from a short vacation, I'm pleased to announce release of a new issue of our e-Newsletter. For those not subscribed to it yet, that bulletin can be read from this installment on Minairons miniatures' Facebook page.

eNews

Also, I've taken advantage of those holidays for preparing a handful of gaming aids for free download, following recent requests from our friends in Reus' XXIXth RPG and Strategy Days and Montmeló's Xth Napoleonic & Black Powder Open. Such gaming aids consist of Catalan language versions of Quick Reference Sheets for Too Fat Lardies' Bag the Hun, Ganesha Games' Galleys & Galleons and Sam Mustafa's Maurice; as well as much needed Action Cards for SCW ambiented BtH.

Aids

None of these new gaming aids are Minairons' own products by any means, but just gaming accessories designed by myself as member of a local wargaming club. The above mentioned rulesets are property of their respective publishers, and their acquisition is still needed for gaming - they all are strongly recommended!
