Title: Heinrichsen flat set "Hunting scenes"
Post by: Roland Simon on December 30, 2016, 02:06:21 PM
Some time ago, I discovered the 40mm Heinrichsen set "Jagd" (Hunting scenes). The set consists of 22 figures in 40mm size. They are beautiful engraved, probably by Ernst Heinrichsen himself in 1836 (!)
The series shows stag hunting and boar hunting scenes
I enclose some pictures of the first painted figures and hope you like them, as I do. It was a real pleasure to paint them., due to the very fine engraving.
Best regards
Roland

Very nicely done Roland, they have that cartoonish look to them ( tall and skinny ) that I rather like :)
