Very interesting subject--Saxons at river Lech--do not see that every day.  Very nice paint work.

It was a battle faught by King Otto 1st (and his men) against the Hungarians.
His brother Ulrich, a bishop of Augsburg, led the defence of the town (Ulrich is the guy in the green cloak).

The whole topic is on display with three big dioramas in the vicinity of Augsburg
https://www.955schlachtaufdemlechfeld.de/infopoint-koenigsbrunn/

The dioramas were made by Martin Sauter, a collector and editor, who -sadly- passed away last year.
He developed a whole big series of German and Hungarian warriors and built the dioramas.

And since the King Otto is buried in my hometown it was -sooner or later- a must for me to paint him.
By now he is not visible in my display.

Second picture - German writer Theodor Fontane trying to have breakfast in France 1870 (my new series)

Hi friends !!


Thanks for your sign of life, I was scared of your silence!!!
But Joerg, I have the same disease, I started several tasks since two years, not finishing anyone too.  Today at the dawn of 2025, I have no more flats finished for competitions in 2025, so the pressure is there.


Let's us all publish some of our WIP'sto re-activate the site, visited by many other people, but who might not come back is we are all absent.


Angelo, sorry to hear your health issue and let me wish you before 31 of December a restoration of your energy in your passion  .. I am close to publish your detailed pictures of Kulmbach this week and next week .... We are hungry for more next year, you last posted on Facebook is outstanding !!!!!


Thanks for your responses, let's go on further and attract more passionnates!  Christmas holidays are releasing time for painting for those who are still on a job, and should wake up the retired fellows spending more of theur time to internat than with their brushes and paints....

Well problem is - there is only work in progress, but nearly no results.

Currently I am working at the promo-painting for my new series "Breakfast with dud bomb" in 45mm,
a story from the German-French War 1870.
(and at a number of other topics, but all unfinished...)
