Lego Spanish Civil War - Siege of Madrid 1936 

Oh thank you

Im still confused because both sides also use dark tan uniform s and use the same helmets

@@tapesayshowdyIt is confusing since both sides tend to have the same uniforms in the civil war (part of the mainland Spanish Army joined the Fascists side at the start of the conflict while the rest remained loyal to the Republican government). I made the Fascists with dark tan wear OD Green Gorillos and M26 Spanish Helmets while the Republicans that wear dark tan wear khaki/tan Gorillos and Adrian helmets so it's easier to identify. Later on throughout the war, Adrian Helmets along with light Khaki/Tan Gorillos (the tassel was absent) would become more of a typical Popular Army uniform. Nationalist Regulars were often seen sporting the OD Green Infantry Gorillos with the red tassels and M26 Spanish Helmets, sometimes a few M30 Czechs were issued but those were worn by the Republicans too

@@JS-gc7kf ok!

Thank you man. The only thing I can do for now is abide my time. Hopefully there will be more interest in the Spanish Civil War that other people make animations on it. For now, I'll pop up some more SCW films.

When? Its been 11 months man💀 also i have watched this video like 10 times, thats how good it is.

@@adnanbenic8713 not sure man, it aint easy when you have a full time job, school, and hobbies like reenacting and this! I may end up doing a remake because there are loads of mistakes i wanna correct in this video 🤔 I also appreciate your passion for this video, haha, thank you

I can understand that so yeah! And i can wait!

@@adnanbenic8713 alright cool! just doing my best, man haha😎 im exploring different battles of the spanish civil war and will do other different topics here and there, will upload another teaser sometime this month. 👀

Intresting! And also you can use a ppd-40 (bassicly a ppsh-41) and you can make it out of a type 99 submachine gun and ppsh-41 magazine! And also good luck!

many thanks!

Thanks bro. The extended version will def have more content which will be much longer than this video! This "theatrical release" lacks some aspects for the story but it will be addressed in the "Extended cut".

thanks man, this means a lot to me! I grew up watching classic lego war films in the early 2010s so I wanted to give my animations that classic feeling! I also grew up watching 60s-90s war and action movies which is why I mix up modern and old SFX. Wait ‘till you see my upcoming Spanish Civil War and Vietnam films! 😎

@@JS-gc7kf can’t wait!

Many thanks

haha thanks dude, took me months to make this. If anything, pursue making that video. We need more LEGO SCW films!

@JS-gc7kf yes we do! However, my generation is starting college, etc. Maybe this next one will!

My many thanks! I was inspired by old war films I saw as a kid (Longest Day, All Quiet on the Western Front, The 300 Spartans etc) to use classic SFX and set the vintage atmosphere for my animations! Definitely something I would've enjoyed as a kid so I agree with ya lol

Thank you! Hopefully that changes, I aspire to draw more interest in this conflict that is underrated compared to WWII and Vietnam.

Thank you for the constructive feedback! I'm glad you appreciate the details I added in and I hope to improve them drastically in my future videos! Please stay tuned for more of my SCW films

Thank you, for sure there will be more. I'm currently working on one from the POV of the Legionarios

Bro I really used xd back then wtfffffffffff

ty bro

Thanks man, I just happen to get interested in SCW because I was building a Fascist army regular and Carlist Requeté Milicano kits for SCW reenacting. I thought SCW needed some brick films

@@JS-gc7kf It does indeed

Haha thank you! I remember playing your mod a while ago when I was bored, was messing around the battles with bots. Your mod actually helped drive my aspiration to do Spanish Civil War reenacting. Thanks again! I'll be making more SCW films!

@JS-gc7kf I felt somehow the influence, dont ask me why. Btw we are working on a new version v5, just in case you're interested!

Thank you, I appreciate it! I am working on another early war engagement based on the Battle of Irún which will feature the Fascists, particularly the Carlists and the Legionarios. Stay tuned!

@@JS-gc7kf I really think you have the right idea. Developing a story around the Spanish Civil War could be fascinating in that it's probably one of the least known stories of the World War II era. Good luck and I hope it's excellent! just subscribed by the way.

Thanks Mike! I am also involved in WW2, Vietnam, and SCW reenacting so in some ways, many of the small details you notice and action you see in the film are from experience lol. I hope to have more people be interested in the Spanish Civil War because it is indeed an interesting conflict in the WW2 era. Through my story telling, I hope it helps people learn about this complicated war, this is something you don’t see everyday. Honestly, I’m tired of doing WW2 films and seeing like one WW2 battle get like 30 animations on RU-vid in one month, so I’m exploring other topics of this time.

@@JS-gc7kf I've always been of the opinion that telling a great story is the key to making a great film, and that holds true whether the movie is a Lego stop motion film or a multi-million dollar Hollywood production. If there's no story, it's a waste of time. With SCW you've got a GREAT story on your hands! It's all a matter of how you want to tell it. . . , and if it's any help one of the greatest of our American writers did a bang-up job with it in "For Whom The Bell Tolls." You should be so successful (LOL!).

AND . . . I'm with you on getting away from creating one "War Movie" after another. I'm still very new at this stop motion business, but it seems as if once you've developed your technique for showing a gunfight doing it over and over again is not only easy but downright boring. It's the story. The story is everything!!

iExacto! I’m currently working on the battle of Irún, another early engagement in the Civiil war which will star the Legionarios y Carlist Requetés. Ebro is also in my plans as well as Jarama and Lopera

I am sure other battles featuring lego combatants related to the Spanish Civil War such as this battle of Madrid that will be great and gain many views. This is one of the best lego combat videos I have ever seen. Bravo...

Thx bro, the sounds are from old movies and games I loved as a kid. As for most Republican units, militias typically formed up throughout Republican-held territories like cities and villages. Training was pretty basic, equipment poor, and experience minimal in contrast to the seasoned veterans of Franco’s troops who fought in the Rif War. The supplies and logistics was a problem throughout the Popular Army in the early days of the war (still is ‘till the end of the war tbh) but much of the problems including lack of army centralization was attempted to be addressed in late 1936 when the Rep Government reorganized the Popular Army. The Mixed Brigades eventually became a typical unit of the Popular Army and Militias had to be intergrated. Certain militia groups like the POUM disliked that since they prefer to doing their own thing rather than having to follow a centralized military hierarchy. Anyways good luck to your Zaragoza film, I look forward to seeing it man

Ok thanks so much this is very helpful!!

Fr, from all the cesspool that is of Spanish Civil War uniforms, I attempted to make the clothing on both sides distinguishable without sacrificing too much historical accuracy or becoming too farb. You can see the pinned comment I wrote as a reference on who’s who

¡Viva!

The death sound effect

from a video of SFX long ago that got deleted sadly

I accidentally spilled sepia over my film lol

@@JS-gc7kf bro what

@@vietnambrickproductions4052 jk man, i just added a bit of sepia on my clips

Gracías y no problema! Tengo una nota para explicar que la differencia con los uniformen del Republicanos y las fascistas/nacionalistas. Un salud!

@@JS-gc7kf Y también dentro del bando republicano tampoco se distingue las diferentes facciones entre brigadistas, stalinistas, anarcosindicalistas y republicanos

no that’s one of his sons lol

​@@JS-gc7kfI suppose being a soldier runs in the family

Esos son de Brickforge y Brickmania

I got them from Brickforge

@@JS-gc7kf Thx, I'll check it out

Thanks man! Expect more coming soon!
