  • Here's a unique WW2 era Lego Stop motion film I've made about the Spanish Civil War, featuring a dude with a familiar name. Oliver Winterbottom continues his family tradition of fighting in wars by enlisting in the International Brigade units. In late 1936, the capital of the Spanish Republic, Madrid, is attacked by the Rebel Nationalist Army led by General Francisco Franco. With the support of Germany and Italy, the Nationalists attempt to take the city by the end of the year but the valiant and staunch defense of Madrid's citizens with the support of the Popular Army, the International Brigades, the CNT-FAI, the POUM, and other groups, the capital never fell to Franco's forces.

      @@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

    Very well made movie!
    I love the use of cardboard at the beginning for blown out buildings. The audio effects are amazing. The use of what looks like overlayed Microsoft paint for muzzle flashes, bullets, and empty casings is a nice innovation from the standard cotton fiber or orange disks. And of course cotton smoke and play dough blood are still nice effects that hold up after several years, you can never go wrong there. And do i hear World at War music near the end? I love that
    Very talented! I hope you have the energy for future movies!

Through my story telling, I hope it helps people learn about this complicated war, this is something you don’t see everyday.

If there's no story, it's a waste of time. With SCW you've got a GREAT story on your hands!

    • @JS-gc7kf
      @JS-gc7kf  Před rokem

      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
