The Prussians are here.

Hi Folks.

Well here they are my first Dystopian Wars models have arrived!! They actually came the other day but I've only just got round to looking at them. As these are my first Spartan Games models I wasn't totally sure what to expect. I've seen pictures before but not the actual models, and I have to say I am heartily impressed!! The level of detail is fantastic, the airships in particular I could sit and stare at for ages.

The models are made of resin, which is to a very high finish. With only a very small amount of trimming needed that I can see, and no air bubbles. 
One other point that struck me is the flying bases. Now in the past flying bases have been a bane of mine, as they seem to break at the slightest little thing or just look tacky. These however are a totally different kettle of fish. The base and rod are both clear acrylic and are pretty robust. They are thick enough to be fit for purpose but not so thick as to look odd. The diagonal lines etched into the base are a nice touch as well and will save the use of another template.

So to sum up, Spartan Games have excelled themselves with the Quality, Style, and Detail of these models and I cant wait to get stuck into the nitty gritty of painting them.   


I'll blog the full process as I paint these beauties up ready for combat.

Been painting up Prussians myself and have to agree with everything said here, the detail is outstanding given the size of some of the ships! My only grumble is that I haven't had a chance to play for quite a while and have only managed one game so far!

I'm yet to actually play the game but I look forward to trying it once I have some more models. Cheers :-)
