FIGZ 2015 Special Waterloo Project

One of the members of Benno's Forum came up with an idea to make this years meeting something special in rememberence of the Battle of Waterloo 200 years ago. He called it: "The Bennos Figures Forum Waterloo Project or short the BFFFWP". 

Main thing is he wants to make a rather big diorama with figures from different manufacturers and painted by as many as possible, members of the forum. I must say that he had big responce and the project is at this moment in his final stage.

The diorama will be shown for the first time at the meeting in Arhnem. More information about the meeting can be found here: http://www.figz.nl/ .

More information about how the project is going can be found here and some pictures of the painted figures, here.

So if you don't know what to do on the 7th of June, come and give us a visit in Arnhem! Hope to see you over there!

The next figure was my contribution for the project. He is the Chief of staff from the Prussian Army, Gneisenau. This metal figure is from Art Miniaturen. I hope you like him.

  5. Yes, Nice. Very Nice work Indeed Peter. I would welcome another group build on Benno`s Figure Forum, but on a much larger scale to justify the high cost of postage. A thousand Members sending in one box each. That's say 45.000 infantry models in say two weeks! If Cavalry was also undertaken and painted one box per Member,then that would range between 12,and 17.000 figures in say another two weeks.
    The cost with added postage would be well over £ 20.000. So Yes ,I know I am a Dreamer,but thankfully I`m not the Only One. BB
