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.

Incan Women bathing
This set was given to me by a very good friend. The set is available at Berliner Zinn. I soaked the figures overnight in vinegar and when dried, sprayed them with matt white.
