      Wow, that was fast! Yes, that fatty guy is Charles IV. The pic is inspired in Goya's painting. Who will be the third in this gallery of horrors that is the list of Spanish rulers???

        Hey, esa sí que se parece! No me extraña que la acertasen enseguida!

        Who made it? kIndal? It's a great work...

        I have some ideas for the third one...

          It's mine, he, he . This one and the bandolero unit that now appears in Spanish Pride are the only units from my Napoleonic scenario that I could retrieve after the crash.

            The only thing I could say about it is that whoever it is, it's a bourbon.

              Yes, he was your king too, he, he

                OK, now:

                Spanish Rulers, Part III

                Who do you think this guy in black is?



                The quality of this unit is not much (see the dog), but I think the character will be easy to recognize.

                  It's not that easy.... the dog would suggest me Charles III but he was not red-haired... has to be an Habsburg... I'd say... Philip IV?

                    Yes, it is Philip IV... I got it from a Velázquez painting, he's with his dog too, like Charles III in the Goya painting.

                      Boy am I smart! I recognized it by the shape of the head, no kidding! Eso te quedo muy muy conseguido. Podrias abrir una seccion en tu web sobre figuras historicas, lo podrias llamar "La galeria de horrores"

                      Dos cosas mas, quieres mi units page para tu güeb? estoy pensando seriamente en eliminarla de mi sitio.
                      segunda: puedes postear el cuadro de Velazquez que dices, no lo recuerdo. Ya se que es imperdoneibol pero no caigo... yo soy Goyista acerrimo.

                        Too, I have thought that he is Charles III, as the painting where he is wearing black clothes and hunting with a dog.

                        The idea of a "Horrors Gallery" sounds very cool,in fact you have a special file with famous people, haven´t you?

                        I would add my Charles I and Olivares units but everybody know them

                          I have asked Jay Bee to upload a pic by myself. Not really a character of horrors, though to some he is...

                            Okay, here it is:



                            Stefan did not tell me who it is, but by his comment on the previous post I'd say... Philip II?

                              Yo prefiero a Velázquez, la verdad; Las Meninas y Las Lanzas me parecen sencillamente los mejores cuadros de la historia de la Humanidad, pero Goya no se queda manco, no... En fin, ahí va:
