Work on Semi Flats, or is it Semi Rounds?

   I have been trying to get interested in my wargaming projects, with little success. While going through some of my boxes of figures I came across some of the semi-flat cavalry. I decided to pull the semi-flats out and go through them, hoping to get motivated.  I found some figures that I made a mold of. These were put aside to get a coat of paint. I also primed one cavalryman, also to be painted. I must admit that my treatment of these figures is abysmal; they are just thrown into the boxes. My favorite figure, which I only have one of, the rifle was badly bent. A better system of packing them must be found.

Here is a picture of some of the better painted figures. Truly a crime!

When I first started collecting semi-flats, I bought two sets from Berliner Zinnfiguren. These came in nice boxes where the figures were sandwiched between foam. I took the one of a kind figures and put them in one of the boxes.

  1. I too am very fond of semi-flats and have been building up my collection overtime. I hope these splendid fellows help get you motivated.

    1. Thank you Alan. I dare say my loss doesn't compare to yours. I'm sorry for your loss.
