More photos from Alfred - Again Hungarians 955AD - This time the siege of Augsburg

Alfred told me that there is another diorama close to the official diorama of the battle of Lechfeld. Sadly it is not open for the public, but Alfred had the connections to see it.

As he might it would not be interesting to him (and me:-)) he sent me the photos to put them on the blog.
And here the first bunch...

And this time again Rocroi

This morning I started to glue figures on our usual plates. Here I wanted to have cavalry units of
100 men each in four rows to attack the back of the Tercios.

But I run out of Cuirassiers very soon (middle unit). A lot of my cavalrymen are from Tumbling Dice and some old Hinton Hunt which were a gift from my friend Hank. Hey Hank, again many thanks - and you see they come into action now:-))

Not Rocroi...

...but a vey nice little diorama from Michel Vogt. 30YW cavalry ambush.

Building up the Rocroi diorama with flats

Before I go upstairs glue my 1/72 figures in formation for the upcomming diorama, I want to show here
the last series of photos Alfred sent me from his and Roland's work in the museum of Rocroi itself.

You have seen photos from the diorama already on the blog. Here is now the building up.

I promise within some days you will see my own figures in formation:-))

And here the photos. When I got these I thought again there are people who have a much better job than me.....

This time a really "special" medieval diorama

Today we had a family trip, visiting the Playmobil fun park in Zirndorf, near Nürnberg.

Beside playing Top agents with my son (five) the whole day, exploring the pirate-ship etc., we took a look
at the small Playmobil museum which is there.

Here I found this special diorama which is maybe interesting for you too?
