Our hobbyfriend Frank Velte visited the war museum in Athen...

 ... and sent me these photos of byzantene soldiers. 

I guess it is 9th to 11th century - another nice idea for a figure project.

SYW Austrian infantry

 My mate Patrick is working on a diorama of the battle of Kolin, I am still occupied with the combat at Korbitz and in the past few month, I have read a lot of books about the war of the Austrian succession in Italy and Bavaria. 

So it was logical, we go for Austrians (which I can also use as Bavarians:-)) Here the photos of the first poses, some more to follow to complete marching, standing, advancing and firing units.
