Patrick created a new diorama for the museum projects of Mules of Marius. If you want to rent a diorama for an exhibition, they are your men.
History in 1/72
We are a group of Enthusiasts from all over the world, mostly Germany, who create historical battles in scale 1:72. As we do this since more than 10 years we thought it is time for our own blog. Being a historical enthusiast I wanted to fulfill my dream of producing my own figures in this scale too. So I started working with several sculptors to produce exotic figures in 1:72 which I fear nobody else would bring on the market.

Dioramica 2024
In September my friend and partner with Blackwatch-Miniatures is organizing the 4th "Dioramica".
See the details at the homepage of the club
https://www.geschichte-in-miniaturen.de/dioramica.html
The sad thing is, he told me because of missing space, I can't create a diorama over 2x7 meters.
Well, in my eyes just a vignette:-) I have to think about it, what to do.
There will be a bring & buy as well as twice as much exhibitors as we had last time.
I hope to see many of you there, this is not a fair for buying simply plastic figures for the usual prices, but a meeting of hobbyfriends who show their work, talk about our hobby, having some beers and barbeque and simply having fun.
Beside this, in my eyes a bring & buy is much more interesting. Here I hope to get some old figures, maybe painted stuff and old books.

Some nice ACW Conversions
Our hobbyfriend Ralf Guntermann sent me some photos of his collection. Here a few great conversions from the "good old times",when we had to create conversions ourselves.
Today with 3d-technic you can nearly have everything which is good on one side, but I remember the evenings when we sat down with a knife, "killed" some figures and created new ones. OK, I never tried the Airfix magazine idea of Chinese cavalry, made with a lot of paper etc.:-)
My favourites of his photos first - Louisiana Tigers
Upper body - ACW figures
Baggy trousers - Esci muslim warriors
Gaiters - Esci Austrian infantry
the rest - simply Milliput:-)
