we should launch a painting project on these for 2017-2018 .... Volunteers to paint two (2) figures out of the eight - timing = one year, consolidation at Euromilitaire 2018 in Europe and to be decided in the USA (BFFS to bring): someone from BFFS to consolidate orders now to buy at Kulmbach and dispatch  ...

No ?? new serie, nice, clean ... Why not, three weeks to make decision, I would participate and am ready to paint two more than the eight I plan to do anyway !!!

Mauro will have to be paid for the figures if you go ahead, small producers are on a tight budget before they start  :)

Of course !!

Brian, coordinate it to consolidate and have someone from BFFS to obtaine the flats at Kulmbach for dispatching on site or later by past; I will cover all osts and buy of the flat myself !

Open a Project line to have people registration, I can follow-up later, but not with Kulmbach and dispatchings as I am in Turkey still for at least two months !!

Thanks!

Michel / Brian please select my pair for me - as long as it doesn't have crazy heraldry that will leave me cross-eyed and slamming my forehead against my worktable more than 5 or 6 times per evening. My skull isn't thick enough to handle it yet. Thanks guys!

Love this hobby!

It looks like the flats at the begining were drawn and made from the characters shown in colours, which are actually small rondes-bosses figures in three dimensions !!  Indeed the final orientation of the characters are not identical and these coloured ones are NOT the paintings of the flats !!

And there are seven coloured people, and eight flats.  I'm trying to arrange them properly ...

Hi Michael
may be that with this imagesthe set  is more clear.

[attach=1]

this one is the eigth figure non present in the other picture, it is the standard bearer d'Orleans.

[attach=2]

and this one is the complete set. The figure E4 conte d'Eu, in the set has been substituted by Boucicaut.

Thanks Mauro !!

The heraldy seems a bit simpler with this substitution with Charles d'Artois at this scale !!

I am fan as flats  and would like to get this serie, for sure; you kind answer to Brian will be appreciated to decide to go further or not with othr persons inerested .. Will these flats become avalable at Kulmbach, as FLATS also, in addition to ronde-bosses  as shown on your photographs and drawings ??

Hello Michel,

I will be present with a table in Kulmbach -Sector E7-
so, receiving the figures should be no problem.

I am supporting the cost of 45 euros (3 sets of 15€) and their sending to the participating members. This is my contribution to the BFFS also for the delay occurred on derviche and Scottish pikeman due to my recent Heath problems.  I will supervise them three if I get some logistics support from BFFS due to my presence far away from home §some 4,500 km) ...
