About Me

My photo
Fritz II.
Büchenbach, Bayern, Germany
Since I was a little boy I was fascinated by toy soldiers. In 1987 I started with 30mm flats and after a few years I found interest in historical tabletop-minis. I´ve only been painting them until 2010. Now I found some comrades to join the world of tabletop so my figures are now able to fight in historical battles.
