Thank you.

Here are the next figures. Some camp followers on foot. It is interesting to see that these people were dressed very different to the Landsknechts they followed.
These figures are now edited by Schmalkaldener Zinnfigur.

Nice, meticulous work, Christoph!
I particularly like the rendering of the Burgundian signs and the small Wappen on the top of the cart!
Well done!!

Thanks for the link. I reduced the file---it was very large at 534 MB--and put a PDF copy in the Uniformology category in the Members section.

This book has quite fantastic pictures, and when seeing how highly decorated the people and the flags were at that time, I wonder how rich people were then, compared to today.


If they would be able to see our present time, ou military armies, ou clothings, they would thing our period in History is really poor and lacks inspiration !!!!


Look at our government rooms, how people are dressed, meetings between countries representatives .... and how they were dressed then !! 


Really amazing...

Hello,
I started painting a set of figures showing a landsknechts train. Most of the figures are based on drawings from the triumph of emperator Maximilian and were original edited by Mr. Fechner.


For those of you who are interested in the original drawings, have a look here, the train is shown on the last pages.

Here is the first wagon.
