Waterloo 2015`

Every year we have a large game. This year was no different and of course we did Waterloo!  4 of us have been painting like idiots for the last six months......................but we got there!

It was an allied victory and hopefully I'll tell all some time this week but here's some pictures of our little battle.  Figures are from teh collections of Jeff Bridoux, William De Pretre, Daryl Smith, and infamous Matt Fletcher, Mark Warner and my good self.

No cucumber or tomato plants were hurt in the making of this battle although we did piss the cat off no end.

Enjoy.

Retreat from Moscow / campaign Poles

Long time, no post...............apologies.

Please see the latest pictures of the Retreat from Moscow Poles, including the command.

Painted by Francesco Thau, I think these figures really capture the campaign look and feel.  Should have a load more release this year.

Hope you like the pictures.

Latest releases from Murawski Miniatures

Due to the sad demise of Stewart Griffin from Griffin Moulds it’s been a bit slow here recently. Basically I was out of stock of some items, couldn’t get the new items cast, and was in a bit of a pickle. However, things seem to be returning to normal now.
We’ve got a hell of lot to launch this year, including:

  • Hussars and Chasseurs a cheval – yes, they are being worked on!  I don’t think they’ll be ready before the summer to be honest.
  • A whole load of campaign figures designed for Spain, Germany in 1806/7 and Retreat from Moscow. 
  • A new range of Baden figures that have been designed specifically to be Perry / Murawski compatible.
  • The eagerly awaited command figures for the campaign / Retreat from Moscow range.
Retreat from Moscow Command






There are 6 figures in a set, 3 of which are cast open handed, allowing them to be equipped with a musket, halberd, or eagle. There are also 2 drummers: I am also going to throw in the middle figure for “free” whilst stocks last as the sword didn’t come out properly!  We don’t really know why but you can use him as is or trim the sword off.
Pack price will be: £9.50 for the seven figures.

At last I am pleased to announce that the officer casualty figure is now available. 

He can be acquired 3 ways! (How about that for customer focus?):
1.     £2 plus shipping
2.     FOC with orders over £50
3.     As part of the GDW casualty pack for £5 – please specify

If you require anything please contact me via the Murawski Miniatures website.

British command bases for Waterloo

I am flat out painting troops for our BIG Waterloo game at the end of June.  Of course, being "rational" the first figures I did were the British command.  Mainly Perry they will at least be there!  Now, all we need are troops...............

Hope yuo like the pictures.





















I am currently painting the Brunswickers and I heartily fed up of painting black already!

Happy - belated - New Year!

Many apologies for the lack of posts but Murawski Miniatures has been very busy, as has my "real" business.  Added to that I actually took 2 weeks off at X mas for my first real holiday in over 5 years. Boy I need it.

During the holiday period the incredibly talented Francesco Thau sent me the pictures below.  I have more greens to get cast for marching campaign / great-coated / retreat-from-Moscow Poles, including a full command pack. However, I also received some incredibly sad news in that Stewart Griffin, who does all my casting passed away in December.

This wont affect the Murawski Miniatures business but as my requirements are not urgent I have informed the company I can wait as they have a massive backlogue of orders.  So, please bare with me,










I'd like to thank eveyrone who has supported Murawski Miniatures in 2014. It really is appreciated. I dont actually make any money out of this, in fact its a massive drain on money and time. So your support is what keeps me going.

One last note to viewers of Fox News in the states.  I lived and worked in Birmingham in the UK for ten years, went to business school there, and even played rugby for Birmingham Solihull.  It isnt a no-go area for non-Moslems. In fact, and based on my experience, I can honestly say some of the friendliest people there are from the  Moslem community. And as to Moslem police enforcing dress codes etc in London I do wonder if anyone from Fox News has actually ever left the US, let alone been to London.  My advice to anyone taken in by that utter load of bollox is to travel more and see for yourself, and dont watch that Murdoch owned comedy channel! Even the bloody Simpsons ridicules it and they are shown in Fox!
