Great work Konrad,

I have always find flats beautifull painted an amazing thing to see. What a great painters are the men who paint a flat.
I find the flat that you painted a great work of art. I've seen more flats out of your hand, and they are all pieces of art.
I see you at our show in march 2006.

Unglaublich wie plastisch die Flachfiguren erscheinen.
Außergewöhnlich gute Bemalung.

Manfred said exactly what I was going to say...... :lol:

Nice work Konrad, the painting of your horses is really beautiful. I especilly like the black horse as well, exceptionally well rendered. I look forward to seeing more stuff from you as time goes by.

Wonderful! This is super work.
I love flats. (I wish they were more available/popular.)
The trick to a flat is shading and depth to create the 3D effect.
You have done that very well.
I love flats. I want to see more like these.
Two thumbs up.

Hello,
@ Manfred: Ich glaube das Geheimnis bei der ganzen Sache ist die Reduktion auf einfache geometrische Formen und das aufsetzen der Lichter so das du der Figur Länge, Breite und Tiefe gibst. Ich nenne dies den Y - Effekt. Desweiteren das konsequente Malen in der Komplementärtechnik, dies ergibt sehr tief natürlich wirkende Schatten sowie der Verzicht auf Weiss und Schwarz bei der ganzen Malerei.

@ I think the secret by painting flats is the reduction on simple geometrical forms and pleace the light so that the light gives the lenght, wide, deepness, I call this the Y- effect .
Furthermore consistent painting in the complementary technology, this results in very deeply naturally working shade. As well as the renouncement of white and black by the whole painting.

Sorry for my bad english, I hope you can understand what I mean.

Conny

Konrad:

Herzlich Willkomen! Die Flachfigure gefallen mir am besten, und Ihre Arbeit ist erstaunlich! Vielen Dank!

Going back to English, I especially love your colors - amazing blending! Would you mind sharing your recipe for the dark blue of the prussian officer? I paint in oils and I find blue to be particularly troubling - judging by your work, you've got it mastered!

Thanks again for posting your work - please post more!
