42mm 1897 German command group

Started painting these a bit after the hussars but finished first because there's less to paint.

However, before that I thought I'd just set up all the Prussian Zinnfiguren homecast figures I've got including the ones I bought off ebay - it's building up to a nice little army.
This is the command group from the newly-acquired moulds - the officer is actually an artillery officer.

The light blue cross on the standard doesn't show up very well on this picture.

Bit better here. They've turned out really well though to get the standard to cast I had to use the mould with very little pressure on it - which meant a lot of flash.

  2. Yes! Shades of H.G. Wells and A Gentleman's War. Have you mentioned what your plans are for them?

    Best Regards,

    1. They're part of the 1897 Great War in England 1897 setup - Germany came in on Britain's side. Plus I just got sucked in to doing them.
