Defining A Zinnfiguren Collection

My aim in setting up this blog is in exploring flats (zinnfiguren) as an art form. Once thought of as playthings, flats have evolved into very artistic pieces, created for and treasured by collectors. I prefer to explore flats in a contextual setting by putting them into shadow-box dioramas of artistic merit which can be reasonably contained within a manageable space. The chronology of this web blog will hopefully blaze a definite trail in this direction.

Construction of some box frames and backgrounds

I spent some time constructing more box frames and backgrounds for more planned dioramas. All three are based on Ikea frames. These box frames are between 3-5 inches in depth.
