Another diorama for Chlum (Königgrätz)

And again with 54mm figures - they have a lot in the museums there...

I like this period:-)

Battle of Chlum/Königgrätz 03. July 1866

This is a nice diorama with 54mm figures. Together with Alfred, I spent my weekend on the 150th aniversary there. We had a great trip, very long walks over the battlefield, saw a big reenactment and visited several museums.

This is a subject, where I could use my Prussian Picklehaubes against another enemy.

Here I take Alfred's photos, mine I will use for the next diorama

Reenactment battle of Königgrätz / Chlum 1866

Once a hobbyfriend told me what he likes on my blog is that it is not always the same I am showing.
While thinking about what I can post next my view went on the material of last years hobbytour to the 150th aniversary of the German-Austrian war of 1866.

Besides of a lot of museums and some good (and cheap) beer we visited the official recreation of the battle.

Most of the reenactors really looked good and I haven't seen so much Prussian Pickelhaubes before!

The green guys are Saxon Jäger

More 1848, but the Ulans were good

The Prussians are comming

a lot of people made small films there which you can found at Youtube, like for example these here
