Top 10 16th–18th Century Figure Kits for Historical Modellers
The 16th to 18th centuries offer some of the richest subjects in historical figure modelling. This was an era of naval expansion, colonial conflict, samurai warfare, European dynastic armies, religious wars, musketeers, artillery crews and visually distinctive uniforms. For modellers, that means variety. These subjects are not limited to one battlefield or one nation.
