Title: Joan Of Arc flats
Post by: Rob Truscott on February 13, 2017, 08:05:35 PM
Im new to the forum and have just started painting flats again after more than two decades ago when member of the BMSS. Im wondering if The Heinrichsen set of Joan of Arc at the charge with her knights ( battle of Patay ?) is still possible to find. Otherwise the single figure of The Maid at the gallop by Segom ? Actually interested in any representations of her anyone may have .
    Thanks for looking

Already some proposals in large format on EBay Germany using "flachfiguren Jeanne"  as selection words

120mm (just sold, but comes regularly at pisanello)

Hi Rob


According to the Heinrichsen website the Joan of Arc set is still available
Other sets are the Mignot and Brétegnier but now hard to find; for these you will now have to look at Ebay
There is also a big set at Kielmer Zinnfiguren, showing Joan departure from Domrémy to Chinon
Also at Kieler a little group showing Joan capture at Compiègne


The Joan of Arc holding a banner as shown by Michel is not very interesting; design and engraving are poor

Hi. I have the mignot set if you'd like me to take some pictures for you. Ochel has a couple of large jean d'arc sets as well - I believe engraved by Lecke

Thank you everyone. Yes Mike id like to see mignot set. Not sure i have the member access as yet though.... And thanks Eric . I now found Heinrichsens PDF listings . Seems hard to find photos of them unpainted. I like the dynamic ones best, Segom certainly manages movement well and i thnk Heinrichsen too. I saw the Ebay one and it seems a little lack lustre though tempted to get a larger than 30mm figure which is all i have painted.

I like the Mignot-set very much!
Is it available from some sources - or eBay only ... ??
That is the human voracity: one has  figures enough to paint them for a year of rather longer - however one wants to buy even new ones ...  :-\
Terrible!

I was looking for it for years and lucked into them at a show. Kulmbach apparently re-released them some years ago. They turn up on German eBay from time to time but tend to be extremely expensive since they're discontinued

Kulmbach this year and the shop at the Plassenburg sometimes have the Mignot sets for sale
Just maybe some could be got and posted on  ;) ::)

I don't rob sorry. Your best bet is German eBay.

This is a Kieler set of Joan of Arc from the collection of the late Jim Woodley. Also the Segom figure, a copy of one of the Heinrichsen figures I believe.

Thanks for showing . Its slightly poignant , the unfinished set by a master. Joan off to meet the Dauphin at top left definately needs the others around for context. The Segom single chargingJoan stands alone fine. I did notice this in Segom catalogue as part of a Knight set and not available as a single.
