Title: Petermann von Wabern - Bern
Post by: snagy on April 15, 2020, 06:21:44 AM

Friends,
my recently finished figure is of Petermann von Wabern, Bern - from the Schlacht bei Murten set of Blum/Gottstein.
Petermann von Wabern was the village-mayor of Bern, he participated  in the battle of Grandson (and later maybe of Murten) as captain of the troops of Bern.
He was knighted in the Grandson battle.

Impressive contraste between the knight and the horse !
… and how inconfortable was it surely to have to fight in these sardines boxes !!

Hello Sandor,
very nice!
I like the later Blum figures of this set even more then the original Gottstein figures!

Thank you for the feedbacks!


@Michel:  in reality the horse is not so dark: my camera took the high light-level of the armour and that is why the horse is almost black.
I have never been a good photographer...  :(


Have a nice day and stay healthy!!!
