2025 (January) Farrier/Blacksmith "Flattie"

What kind of figures have been used with cardboard Christmas houses and villages, where do you get appropriate figures today, how do you make, prepair, repair or otherwise maintain figures?

2025 (January) Farrier/Blacksmith "Flattie"

Post by Howard »

Greetings to all…

I haven’t done a “flattie” in a while…but I found a very suitable subject…the village farrier/blacksmith…

He’s made the same way as all the other “flatties” so I won’t go over them again…I’ll just post a couple of work-in-progress pictures and the PDF pattern…
I’ll show you a picture of the completed piece later…stay tuned…

Howard…

Totally charming, as usual, Howard. Love the loggie backdrop. I think that in Germany they would consider your flats "semi-flats." Like them, yours add a nice dimensionality to regular flats. Cheers, Antoinette
