Saxon Regiment von Minckwitz


Again a range of the fabulous Trident Miniatures which I couldn´t resist and had to paint them 
as Saxony´s infantry regiment von Minckwitz with their french blue lapels. The formation is advancing and gives, although they are regularly placed on rectangular vignettes, a dynamic effect.
Trident Miniatures take more time to paint, but at the end, all efforts are it worth.
One reason more to order a new package of figures to paint....

    Magnificent figures with expressive faces and dynamic postures. The photos, as always, are unsurpassed. Best regards from distant Argentine Republic. Carlos

    Trident do make beautiful figures and you paint and photograph them beautifully as well.

    Are these from their Hessian range?

      Thanks Ross! Yes, they are of the Hessian range and indeed a joy to paint - even if it takes patience...

      Danke Mike, da freu ich mich sehr. Schade, warst Du heute nicht an der VFZ - wir haben viel über Details und Bemalung unserer 7-jähriger Krieg-Figuren diskutiert, mit Matthias und Martin Kremper.
      LG!!
