Re: Zinnfiguren
My latest unit. These are the Pálffy Austrian Cuirassiers.
I have also recently bought a job lot of Kieler figures which included a rather nicely painted Seydlitz figure.
I found this figure useful as a reference in trying to see what I could achieve with Acrylics. I still have a lot to learn but one thing I will not be doing is trying to use oils to paint these figures.
There is on other thing about Seydlitz figure. He is only painted on oneside. This is common for figures which are then used in dioramas or mounted in pictures frames.
I will use this figure but clearly he can only lead charges going right to left.
Next up a combined Austrian Grenadier unit.

On the plus side, he won't be leading any retreats - unless he transfers to the Gateway Alliance, of course.....Ilkley Old School wrote: ↑Mon Oct 09, 2023 5:50 pm There is one other thing about Seydlitz figure.

Re: Zinnfiguren
Very nicely painted flats.
There is no point in being stupid if you don't show it!

Re: Zinnfiguren
Right. Stop this posting of your flat toys. It's really not helping. Especially with Christmas fast approaching.
