Last of my birthday presents. This is a flat I lusted after since seeing Greg Di Franco's lovely version - http://www.intflatfigures.org/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=69 (http://www.intflatfigures.org/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=69)
I was told by Berliner Zinnfiguren several years ago that the mold had been broken and it was being re-engraved. This one is indeed slightly different than the above version with the streamers at the rear of the craft being engraved a little differently.
Again designed by Mike Taylor and produced by Werner Otto with mine purchased from Berliner Zinnfiguren. Mike also wrote about it in the journal a bit with him documenting a number of attempts at getting this large flat engraved over the years. The wait was worth it and it is a stunning craft.

Mike designed a third large craft which I also have been painting on and off for about a year as well as several smaller craft.
