Friedrich Wilhelm von Dossow (auch Doßow; * 17. Dezember 1669 in Soldin; † 28. März 1758 auf Gut Busekow) war ein preußischer Generalfeldmarschall.



Painted this 75mm figurine of him (issued by Klio AG Siebenjähriger Krieg) in oils recently.

Nicely done, Wolfgang! The classic style! Do you have more flats on the bench?

Prost!

Hi Brad,
thank you for your interest and your kind comment and yes I do. Actually a few figures are due to be finished soon. Austrian Pandours of 1741 and a group of Jäger from the Frei-Regiment La Belle 1758. I do not want to rush to get them ready but I will take pictures and post these on the weekend. Trying to get the right match of colours for the Jäger. I am a big fan of the Light Infantry of the period and as you might know you can get almost any figure from any period in "Zinnfiguren".

regards
Wolfgang



Albrecht Dürer has left the world with some beautiful 1st witness account graphics of the 16th century world,- all of them worsy to have a Zinnfigur produced after them. Luckily I could get a few and will start this one next.
It is issued by Herr Roider of the "Freie Zinnfigurensammler Nürnberg" and it was the "Jahresfigur" = club figurine of 2021 in 75mm. Long sold out but Herr Roider was kind enough to do an xtra casting for me.
Love it, yet I keep looking out for more Albrecht Dürer figurines. You can not get closer to the original 16th century fashion plus it is a nice extra hobby within the hobby.
