Medieval Businessmen

The set is actually called Medieval Citizens and is created by Erik Trauner of Nikolai. There´s loads of his work to be seen at his Site Diorama Dreamland  and I recommend a visit!
The sculpts are very natural looking, proportional, a good test of this is their balance ..if they are in standing poses, then they should then blance on thier own two feet, and this lot do just that. The sculpting is very delcate/filigrann, (which put my painting skills to the test.:-D) and not suprisingly got top marks at PSR
This set is available from Germania Figuren
Hello to Jonathan from My Tiny Things Blog. Load´s of mini´s goodness, his Middle eastern Buildings are very inspirational!!!

    I think your painting skills have more than risen to the challenge; great work on great looking miniatures.

    These characters are probably the best example of your painting skill I've had the pleasure to view: in particular the folds in the clothing.

    Yes, and a nice backdrop too. These are suitable as museum pieces, a real showcase item.

    Great work again Paul, you really seem to be getting quite a population explosion there.

    A lovely addition to your ever expanding collection of medieval figures. It would be interesting to see a future post with the whole collection in a town/village setting.
