yes, a bit a pity, also opportunity to see the whole serie.  I don't have pictures of the BFFS stand to post in the gallery, still in process (I've started the 'standards', then beginners, then compet tables, then vendors'tent to finish (and to start when looking at the gallery).  So during next week or after...


(sorry I have a malfunction of the "t" key....)

With Napoleonic's you are spoilt for choice!  Have a look in links at the top of the page and click vendors and your find Berliner Zinnfiguren


Paint is up to you, most use Oil as I do but also acrylics,  with a frame or box dioramas you only see one side so that's all you need to detail.

Sandor, I thought it looked a bit like the Patrician of Ankh Morpork! Barry

Hi all,
I recently came across some flat figures I bought and started painting back in the mid 1980s and this has renewed my interest in acquiring and painting flat figures.
My main area of interest is the Napoleonic era, although I do have a few ancients and Medieval figures awaiting painting.
At present I am trying to identify some of the figures I have acquired recently and preparing them for painting. 
"Back in the day" I used oil paints as that was the recommended medium to use now I am planning to use acrylics as I use them for painting Discworld figures and my model railway figures. What type of paints do other collectors use now?
Also I am planning to set up some dioramas in modified picture frames, so my question is should I only paint the side seen by the viewer in order to save time or both?
Barry

Why start a new project when the previous ones have not yet been presented. Kulmbach was the best opportunity

Hi Barryw,
your "face" looks very similar to that of mine!
Maybe we are occult brothers?
Cheers-
