40mm:Boritzy Freikorps Grenadiers march past ...

Down in the south outside Vanderhof the Boritzy Freikorps grenadiers are on parade, watched by Count Boritzy and General Waldebeck and the locals. The battalion marches past to music played by the newly raised Freikorps band.
A closeup of the Freikorps band ...
[All figs 40mm from various manufactures and home casts from commercial moulds. The band is by Peip Miniaturen - these figs are actually more 45mm in height, and I must admit to performing some leg surgery to reduce the height - not a problem as the long coats and musical instruments take the eye of the possible anatomical inconsistency]

Superb. I love the band from Peipp, for some reason they remind me of Camberwick Green?!

A fine body of men, and a fine band indeed to do them proud.
Great!

I have to agree, the band looks great. I hope you'll be building them a bandstand to play in.

all the best

Nice parade and a spectacular, of suitably 'exotic' look, band!
