Hi, all, I'm on another tear and knocking out some things that have been on the bench over the winter.


Here is another example of the Franklin Mint Bosniak officer.  I painted this one in the summer uniform used after the war, which reversed the coat colors from the winter uniform:

And another example of Stadden's Duke of Brunswick portrait figure, which I've painted as a field officer in the uniform of Brunswick's regiment (Nr. 5).  I painted the breast star as the Order of the Black Eagle, though it's not very visible in this photo:

This photo also illustrates how Stadden could provide a wide variety of subjects, from the same basic casting.


And last up today, a pair of company officers from Winterfeldt's regiment (Nr.1) with red facings and silver lace:

The uniform lace is finely engraved on the castings.  This photo also illustrates how the same basic figure could be posed and re-posed for an almost infinite variety.


I know I always say this, but I do have some more on the bench, which I should have finished in a couple of evenings.  So I should post again shortly.


As always, thanks for looking!
