Colonel Scheither.

 
Having been busy casting and painting up elements of Scheither's Frei Korp I thought it time to provide them with a commander.
 
 
So here we have Col. Scheither seen here urging his Carbineers on, I'm not sure who the manufacturer is as it is a casting from a metal mold I got cheap off EBay ( German I think ?). But he looks suitably dashing . The Frei Korps also had a Grenadier company, these had a sort of fur mitre cap which I am at the moment trying to reproduce . I am also bringing my line infantry regiments up to strength by adding a extra company to them .

  1. The Colonel looks very nice. He's from one of the Nurembourg-Meisterzinn molds. They have an ummh interesting mix of figures, some semi-flat some fully round and quite chunky.

  2. Nice officer, the Nurembourg-Meisterzinn molds are worth a look at - although some are more towards 45mm size.
