Kronprinz Cuba/Philippnes (1 Viewer)

[jomartvr]

Admittedly my modeling skill are not great, however, I made a base for my KP Cuba figures. The setting is a Philippine village where the population were sieving rice until the Spanish arrived. The flat circular disc/seive and rug are actually based on ethnographic examples from the Philippines. I got the image for the base from the following webpage, https://www.flickr.com/photos/johntewell/5601849559

Nice, I'm hoping this range may expand to some Filipino insurrectos.........I have a Spanish church which could sit as a village center piece in a diorama.

Benjamin,
unfortunately i think the church is a one-off . I bought it on UK ebay and i don't see any manufacturers marks on it.
the retailer isn't a specialist dio modeler either, so its a bit of a dead end unless any other treefrogger recognizes it.
anyway here's a picture.

just conceivably it could be from a rorke's drift Zulu war set from somewhere. not sure.

Hi Guys,

I guess Andrew has nailed it...Try JG Miniatures, his Zulu building series is very similar in construction ( or was, not sure if he still makes ZULU related buildings ).

Hello,
I just received two additional figures from Kronprinz’s Cuba range. One figure is a bugler, Cuba 010, and second is an officer which I had asked Emilio to modify. He kindly replaced the head of Cuba 11 with the one from Cuba 001. This is one reason why I like to purchase figures from Kronprinz and R4a. Modifications are often done at no additional cost and figures are great, in my opinion .
Photographs of the officer and bugler are below, along with other Cuba figures.
Enjoy.
Benjamin
