Brilliant genius!

I think Dirk must be the most heroic figure painter of all time

28mm too

Sorry, only just noticed that.

I had assumed at first that these were the 20mm miniatures you were using for your Waterloo table at Die Tactica, Frank.

Were the figures all borrowed from existing collections?
(Surely you guys didn't paint 15,000 28mm miniatures just for this diorama?

)

Actually, this brings up a few questions...

Which manufacturer/s and how long to paint?

cheers

What? !

28mm?

I thought they were the usual 1:72 plastic.

Now 'retarded' doesn't even begin to cover it!

What are the plans for this in the future then? Storage? Division and games?

That's just unbelievable. And grand.
Unbelievably grand.

Dusting it must be hell, though

Which manufacturer/s

Most of the figures look like they are Perry miniatures - the French cuirassiers certainly are.

With 15,000 minis on the boards, it must have been quite an interesting order...

Gentlemen....

Bravo; BRAVO I say.

Thanks for the nice comments. In most the miniatures are in fact Perry miniatures. As already mentioned, almost all the miniatures had been painted by Dirk Tietten (I have only painted some 100 figures). The collection of Dirk counted about 7,000 figures several years ago and has been extended in recent years for this exhibition. Of course, most of the figures of the diorama are Perry-plastics (approximately 75%). But yes, we ordered a lot of them ;-)

Next weekend there will be the grand opening ceremony. Then also the exhibits of the museum are to be seen (uniforms, weapons and paintings). More pictures will follow...
