18 june 1815 "Battle of Waterloo"
Made about 1960
The pictures on this page have been made in the late 60's. I was about 12 years old at that time. My brother Frans and I had found a new hobby. Painting Airfix 1:72 soldiers of the battle at Waterloo. In those times we did not had the luxury of having so many different soldiers as we have now. We had only French Grenadiers, Cuirassiers, British Hussars, Infantry and Scottish Infantry...I think that I can choose now from about 40/50 sorts.
It was October 2005...During the hollidays my youngest daughter gave the sugestion to buy a box of French Dragoons....Before I new it, the Waterloo fever was back....
