Got Peipp'd (1 Viewer)

[ostrein]

While visiting Dresden I came across the TS from Peipp Minaturen.

I fell in love with the Barock figures and had to buy some. Only problem: I had to paint them first. I've never painted TS before but they turned out OK. Still there're 6 more to be painted and many more to be ordered.

Sorry for the low quality images. :redface2:

Servus, Oliver!

I'm a big fan of Peipp, too, I get mine through Scholz' Berliner Zinnfiguren. I quite agree about the Barock/18th-century series that he produces, I really like them and am gradually acquiring all of the kits. I am really excited about the 18th century hunting party series.

He has an excellent style, bordering on caricature, very detailed with wonderful expressions. I recommend all of his work.

Prost!

And I must add, you have done a wonderful job with your figures, Oliver, gut getroffen!

Prost!

Thanks Brad - its appreciated.

The photos don't do them justice. I've tried to paint them in the K&C style.

They were actually second hand, bought at Berliner Zinnfiguren. Stripped the paint and started all new. Didn't know how much fun it is painting your own figures.

I certainly will get more Peipp figures soon. First I want to complete the Barock Hoffest. The 18th century hunting party series is on my list as well.

Thanks,
Oliver

I have a couple of the Hofmusikanten and some of the guests from the Hoffest, but it will take me a while to collect them all. There is also a series that was in one of the BZ catalogs, the "Incident at the Fountain" or something similar. A party of rogues tries to make off with a young nobleman's beloved. He and his friends put of a fight, the onlookers are shocked, and the town watch approaches...

Peipp's style reminds me of Phoenix Model Developments and some of the sculpts they had. And the variety of his catalog is also great for us collectors.

Prost!
