The Works of Russell Gammage - Rose Miniatures


Russell Gammage was the force behind Rose Miniatures, whose advertisements enticed me in my youth. They only had a handful of fantasy subjects and never, to my knowledge, released anything relating to Sci Fi. One of the greats of the larger scale old school. The article is from an old Campaigns magazine, I will add the date when I find it. I meant to post this some while back!




An old German catalogue, many miniatures I have never seen before. The only ones I have are from a short lived range of females that was advertised in Military Modelling back in the day. They appear in the pics below as part of the German ranges....

A few updated minis.......


Currently suffering from a chest infection that won't go away.........doc's appointment on Friday...the earliest I could get. Thought I would throw some finished pics of minis that have been in the queue for too long....

3 more Wargames Foundry gladiator miniatures




5 very old Rose Miniatures ancient Romans.....well, 2 slave girls and 3 Romans may be more accurate.....Rob at Garrison Miniatures may have these in production still




A group shot........and no, David Bailey I am not..................


 Finally picked up the last Minifigs SF piece I needed to complete the range - SF30 Earth Federation Magnocraft with Driver. It's been a long wait......the Lost Minis WIKI has the full range on show.




Below is a dwarf war wagon kit bash I started about 25 years ago....like most projects it hasn't got passed the undercoating stage.....an amalgamation of Citadel, Minifigs, Pheonix and Hinchliffe parts.....if memory serves me right.


 A couple of updated pics on the VBCW Rolls Royce conversion..............



and finally we appear to have been adopted by a local cat.......Gigi. The children love him and he has grown a lot since he first appeared........
