Carts, Monks, Mules.........and Dobbin

The first Batch from the Heap of lead....and resin.

First the two wagons. Both are made by Toma Miniatures
Ochsen Wagon. I painted the ox black as most medieval paintings Show either totally black or totally (Cream) White oxen..and it saves a lot of time :-D
Hand cart. This set´s titel is "Faster Daddy, Faster!"
Three Monks (and a mule), also made by Toma

The two pack mules...I think are by Valdemar.
and finally, Dobbin.....also by Valdemar...I think

    Excellent work again Paul! I think you are right about the mules and the cow. My first thought was the mules were from Ingo's figures but they look different (the package).

    This figure is nothing more than stupid. Pure fantasy. Can anyone imagine the weight and the costs of a handwritten book? (The painting is as perfect as ever).

      As a stand-alone bod he is a bit silly but I think Wolfgang´s solution (he´s putting it onto a high shelf) works

    Well that was quick, but careful work Paul.
    The whole kit and caboodle looks excellent.
    Well done on both the painting,
    and your presentation. BB

    Fantastic looking figures! Excellent paint jobs as always! I think the monk/priest is holding the bible up deliberately in order to allow it to be seen/venerated by others as that would fit with my understanding of medieval christian liturgical practice. However, if in doubt perhaps the scuptor could be contacted?
