Spanish Jinetes STLs

These are DIGITAL files meant for 3D printing. They ARE NOT physical miniatures!

Sculpted by the incomparable Erramir Orlan of Peculiar Companions, these Spanish Jinetes are intended for armies from the 15th and 16th Centuries. This set of 3D miniatures comes in three variations. All models come as both pre-supported and unsupported STL files.

The 15th and 16th centuries were marked by significant historical events, including the Age of Exploration, colonial expansion, and conflicts that reshaped the world. The Spanish Jinetes played a pivotal role during this period of exploration, conquest, and military innovation.

Battles and Wars:

Conquest of the Aztec Empire (1519-1521): Spanish Jinetes participated in the conquest of the Aztec Empire in Mexico, where their mobility and marksmanship were crucial in supporting the Spanish forces. They excelled at hit-and-run tactics and played a vital role in these historic campaigns.

Conquest of the Inca Empire (1532-1533): Spanish Jinetes, under the leadership of conquistadors like Francisco Pizarro, were instrumental in the conquest of the Inca Empire in Peru. Their ability to maneuver swiftly in challenging terrain was a key advantage.

Tactics and Strategies: Spanish Jinetes were known for their versatility and adaptability on the battlefield. They typically rode agile horses and were armed with firearms, such as arquebuses, as well as traditional weapons like lances and swords.

Their tactics involved fast-paced hit-and-run attacks, often targeting enemy flanks and rear positions. They excelled at harassing the enemy, disrupting formations, and creating chaos before withdrawing safely. This made them a valuable asset in skirmishes and unconventional warfare.

Printing at 100% resolution will yield a 28mm miniature. Prints at 105% are slightly more in scale with Perry Miniatures and 110% prints will be in a compatible scale with Warhammer Fantasy miniatures.
