Cortez's Conquistadors are a six-model infantry unit sculpted by DakkaDakka, each standing 33 mm from feet to eyes. These soldiers wear a striking blend of historical conquistador plate armour and gas-masked, kit-laden modern infantry gear, evoking a world where ancient crusades never ended and the trenches run deep with dread. Shield iconography, layered pauldrons, strapped packs, and long-barrelled rifles combine to create a cohesive and sinister aesthetic that fits perfectly into any grimdark sci-fi or dark fantasy warzone setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach of the six models ships as a physical resin miniature, with supports already removed and surfaces cleaned and sanded where needed. The figures are cast in high-quality grey resin that captures fine surface textures including riveted armour plates, webbing straps, respirator tubes, and sculpted boot buckles. Poses vary across the squad: you receive aiming troopers, advancing riflemen, and alert sentries, giving your unit visual dynamism on the battlefield. The models arrive ready to assemble where applicable and ready to paint straight away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSized at 33 mm from feet to eyes, Cortez's Conquistadors are compatible with most 28 mm to 32 mm scale wargame rulesets.
