Very nice.
Rantzau was a very interesting person. He first was in swedish service and then went to France where he became a marchall in 1645. He was wounded many times and as you can see he missed one eye, one leg, one ear, one arm...

Since the wonderful works of Eric made appetite I purchased the Musketeer figures and start to "work" on them.
Here is my first one.
Of course I should like to avoid any comparison between my moderate work to that of  the Maestro - anyway any critical comments are welcome.
See you at Kulmbach  ;D  !!!

Hello Richard
The personalities come from the Scholtz Mode serie (don't worry, no your's !)
The "Connétable" and trrumpeter are old Muller figures, Frank engraving
I join a picture of Lesdiguières coat of arm

Hi Willie,
I can get all the three booklets (price for all the three is 3*2550 HUF /24 Euro/ + postal costs to you).
The postal costs is up to the weight of the three booklet, but I think it is between 10-20 Euro.
You can transfer the overall when I have them sent to you.
The timing is:
about 3-4 working days till I get them in hand plus
1 day for packaging, plus
3-5 wds for the post to your address.

Let me know if you want them.
Sandor
