On 1st of June, FIGZ 2014 is about to take place in Arnhem, the Netherlands, again! Check www.figz.nl for more details and location info. It's going to be a great day with lots of other figure enthusiasts again.
For this years' show, I have prepared a small dio for which I bought the figures at last years' FIGZ. The idea is completed, although I still think about giving the self-made trees a little finishing.
Oh - and the single-figure-contest figure of mine will certainly ring a bell for Peter from Peters' Cave. :-)
Some days ago, I bought some 40*36cm picture frames at a local thrift shop. I already arranged the Westphalians on it. It fits by size, but I'm still not sure how the terrain should look like and how I could mount all that stuff and still be able to do the groundwork in the gaps between a 3-row-infantry coloumn. Well - I still have at least two months to make it, but I'm not sure that it'll be half way done until FIGZ.
Right. I'm literally back on plastic again. And I know that those mobile phone snaps are a bit disgusting - better photos will follow a little bit later. These chaps represent French Coast Guards from 1811 and are the result of a 2-evenings painting session to restart my 'All pre-bardin uniform type units'-project. Next will be French mineurs - mostly because they're all black and blue and quick to paint.
Honestly, I'm glad having re-started this sort of painting project because, no matter how nice the result looks, painting armies is not my part of the story. Really not.
So - hope to see you at FIGZ, folks!
