Title: Euro Militaire 2015
Post by: Brian on April 08, 2015, 01:51:54 PM
If you where on the balcony last year you'll know what a big success our bit of the show was, so much so we have been asked to do it all again!!
So we need your help to fill the tables with flats, some to do painting demos by the stands, and a volunteer to do a public demo, (like I did last year painting a flat) could be painting, collecting, or even making flats, up to you.

The dates are  19th - 20th September, hotels are already being booked so come and help us promote the flat figure.

2D Figurines will be there with some new flats for you to buy and a specially commissioned 75mm 1815 British Dragoon will be on sale.

Hi All,

I now have confirmation that we will be having the same arrangement as last year, so if you are attending, please bring along a couple of pieces to help fill the tables. Last year was Exceptional, please help to make it as good this year, it is the 30th Euro after all ;) 

Eric, has offered to do the Demo, which is great and we will probably need a couple more ( with me ) on the balcony, to answer questions and give advice.

I look forward to seeing many of you there. This year there is also a new Trophy, The Mike Taylor Memorial Trophy, given to the best flat.

To commemorate the 30th year, 2D / BFFS / Euromilitaire have the following anniversary figure available.

I can´t visit the Euro Militaire, but I´ll visit the VFZ (Vereinigung Freie Zinnfigurensammler) Exhibition
in Nuremberg-Langwasser on 19.9.2015 if it´s not too hot. Today there are 20 degree Celsius in Bavaria.

They have exhibitions on tables without glass. So it´s easier to make some nice pictures as on the
Kulmbach competition.

Best regards

Michael

Ah, maybe I didn't explain this bit, when I volunteered you for the demo but due to elf and safety regulations coupled with the Insurance, the only brewery you can drink from is the Water Bottle!! :o
 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I'm sure we can sneak you in some Amber nectar in a plastic cup ;)
