Flat Friday 1

 Having been inspired by the Mad Padre’s regular posts I have decided to start Flat Fridays. Each Friday I intend to post something about what I am working on in the way of zinnfiguren and semi flat figures. Today here are two pictures of recent additions to the Duchy collection. I am still not quite sure how much work will be needed on them, the jury is still out. Anyway the pictures-

  1. I’ve never held a strong interest in flats, but your posts have helped me find joy in them over the past months. I might even start collecting a few myself! Are the top ones mountain troops? Also I love the pickelhaube helms on the bottom troops!

  2. Excellent French mountain Troops - the elegance of the crooked walking stick.

    Flat Friday is an excellent idea.

  3. Great idea. I look forward to seeing more at the end of each week. At my school we had a glass cabinet full of flats depicting The Battle of Lansdown (the deputy headmaster was a keen 17c historian). I don't remember much about it other than the Cornish pikemen had blue and white striped pikes.

  4. An excellent idea Alan, another reason to look forward to Fridays! These figures look quite good, the variety of semi-flat figures constantly amazes me!
