Yes, it is coming out with a bit of yellowish tint in these.  I will give them a wash and touch up with something a bit darker as you are correct Dragoon Green is pretty dark.

I painted this set some years ago
As all the Frauendorf camp scenes it is really very nice
Marko I think your Dragoon green is too yellowish

Something I have had some fun with over the break.  Still quite a bit of work on the bottom row and some finishing work but, getting there.

Dear Kosak,


this was a very good hint as Seele has obviously overtaken the Thiel figures. Fr 102, 104, 107 and Fr 109 are shown at my photos below.


And the other Fr figures are Thiel figures as well !

I must admit I wasn´t aware Mr. Tobinnus passed away and frankly I do not know who is in possession of his moulds now. But I checked my Thiel list and these two Thiel (in fact former Brandt ) figures are shown on the second photo, too. Te stands for Tetzel and his figures (ho overtook some Thiel moulds) are no more available to my knowledge.

Sadly Tobinnus has passed away.
I do not know, who owns the Thiel-moulds, that were with Tobinnus.

Quite unmodest, I confess:
Two of cavalry camp figures (rider resting; heavy cav.) and two horses with blankets)
are in my stack of moulds.

Does any one have the contact details for Mr Meinecke as it is not possible to travel to Kulmbach.
Kindest regards

Dear Barry,


these figures are not of one set but from different sets unluckily in the possession of different owners today. A part comes from the big Thiel hussar camp as the hussars and dragoon stable dress was alike. For the Knoll figure the best source is Mr. Meinecke - a friend of Mr. Knoll - who sells his figures at Kulmbach. Others are available from Tobinnus.

Well there are indeed still some more very nice figures from Thiel which match very well. All painted by Jörg Hensel.

Aba, That is a beautiful set, I would like to buy this set especially the figures in your 3 pictures. Would you know who sells these, as well as the set number?

Thanks
Barry
