Kindly donated by the Hinton Spieler blog site; showing one of the figures designed by Peter Gilder when he worked for Alberken. I can understand why Hinton Hunt was a tad upset, but to be fair to Gilder the Alberken appears bigger and a bit crisper in detail. It is all subjective of course.
Der Kriegspielers, DK 12: French line infantry 1812, advancing;
Hinton Hunt FN 5: French line infantry 1812-15, fusilier, charging; and
Alberken FN 30: French Napoleonic infantry, fusilier, advancing.
This blog is dedicated to all things concerning the late Peter Gilder, wargamer, prolific figure designer, master figure painter and innovator of all things wargame orientated. So in an effort to address this injustice, this blog will attempt to record as much as is possible about the great man.

DeleteWe had fewer choices in most things Chris, hence the need for Banana Oil.
