More from our Gettysburg diorama

Ha on an old CD I found tons of photos which I got from our old dioramas. And much better ones than I have posted in the last weeks.

Colonial conversions

At the moment I am working on my Wellington range and at a small diorama about the 2nd Afghan war.
Dave Hennen sent me photos some years ago for an Elephant drawn British artillery in India. I think I will try to do the same.

And then in addition to my own Bengal lancers I have here a good idea for conversion which appeared on the HAT ETS some time ago

Again Wellington in India

Hi guys,

after 32 poses of Sepoys, 13 Mysoreans and 4 Mysorean light cavalry we started now on Skinner's horse as I have mentioned in the last post about this subject. See here the first two poses, two more are to follow.

 Temporary paintings

After these are done, I thought about British infantry and cavalry as well as EIC cavalry to round up the British and later a Mahratta army too. Then I think the campaigns in India between 1792 and 1815 are covered. Imagine the siege of Seringapatam completely made with my own figures:-))))

Great paintjob of my Poles from Sander

Yesterday a surprise parcel arrived in Bavaria. Puh Sander still has the time to paint figures for me. I guess from a lot of sleepless nights with little Arthur:-)))

Many thanks mate for the great paintjob!

And Massimo is still alive too

Next to Ingo I got another mail from Massimo who is still active producing great conversions. This time
my favourites - colonials:-)))

The first one is labelled Mettemah 1885 - inspired by Bill Horan

First the "original"

The scond I would call Omdurman

Well I think it is time again to search out some of my own conversion that you don't mean I do nothing:-)

Battle of Leuthen

With all these upcomming SYW figures from HAT, Kamar, Frededricus Rex  and Germania figures I thought it time to go deeper into the subject. As a German I have a huge ammount of sources in written books, hundreds of them available at google books.

As a Bavarian I have the chance to visit the Bavarian army museum in Ingolstadt regulary. Here is the 17.000 figure diorama of Leuthen on display. Ok, flats, but great!

Just in case you like it, I have much more photos of this great diorama.

One of the details of the battle is the storming of the Churchyard defended bei the Imperial regiment "Rot Würzburg" against the Prussian guards.

And because this is a blog about 1/72 figures I have to offer two photos from Ingo - the Church at Leuthen.
Well, Ingo is a master of art in my eyes!!
