The Theodosian Walls of Constantinople

The baggage train is marching out through the gates of Constantinople to join the column of the Byzantine Army. Three mules carry provisions, tools and kit lead by boys while a wine merchant walks along looking for a good deal to sell his cheap stock to unsuspecting customers and thirsty soldiers.
 


It is the camp for my upcoming DBA Army of Thematic Byzantium III/29

This Byzantine Gatehouse is inspired by sections of the Theodosian Walls of Constantinople, today's Istanbul.





It is a  truly original piece, a stewalin cast from a silicon mold I made by myself. Copies are now for sale, you might contact me by e-mail Menic666@yahoo.com or go to the MENIX MINIATURES SHOP. Please note it comes unpainted and unassembled just like on the image below.

Constantinople's patron is Maria. So, I thought I'd put  her marble effigy over the gate. The statue is made of trinkets you might find in souvenir shops at places of pilgrimage like Rome, Santiago or Einsiedeln.

Stay tuned for the next post when the baggage train catches up with the Byzantine Army! More pictures to come....

The MENIX MINIATURES SHOP on Ebay


I'm sure you fellow collectors know the same predicament: you are left with tons of unused miniatures stowed away on the attic in dusty boxes due to  lack of time to paint them or because you  shifted fields of interest to other historical periods or rule systems. Now, I decided to let them go and sell them to gamers and  painters like you who can make better use of them. In the MENIX MINIATURES SHOP on Ebay I sell anything from 28, 25 or 15mm figures painted by me, anything from fantasy to historical. Some on auctions or favorable prices, others somewhat more expensive, since I spent much love and time assembling and painting them. So, feel free to drop by once in a while, bookmark the MENIX MINIATURES SHOP, and be sure to be the first on the block to own an ORIGINALLY MENIC-painted miniature!

This blog is dedicated to ancient and medieval miniature wargaming. I'd like to share pictures of my painted armies and models, self made terrain-pieces and sketches of projects still residing in my head or on a piece of paper.
My main interest at the moment is creating armies and accessories, researching for historical or made-up scenarios and campaigns for the fast-play wargaming rules from "De bellis Antiquitatis" (DBA) with 25mm and 15mm figurines.
I use the blog-format rather unconventionaly. It is more like a scrapbook. And I update the older posts so keep checking. I recommend utilizing the labels to the left. So if your just interested in miniatures click the "Miniatures"-label and you will be presented with posts concerning painting, figurines etc. And don't forget to click on "older posts" at the bottom of the page for more. And many thanks for commenting!
