Hello my friends,

Just finished this evening this figure from Sparta Miniature's.
With the help of Gary i made this in my vieuw lovely figure. I imagine that the grenadier pick't up the flag who has fallen and bring it back into the regiment. It good happen, the flag whas afterall very important for the regiment.
So, i made this little conversion (changed the rifle for a flag).
Hope you can give me some positiv critism.

Marc

Mark, I like the conversion , from what I can see from the pictures, you have done a very nice job, but I can not give a true critique, the pictures are not very clear.

Cheers

Marc, love the torn, burned and tattered flag. Some close ups of the figure itself would be great, but he looks nice over all for sure. Love the snowy and icy groundwork!

Not to sound harsh or anything, but I've carried reproduction flags like that and it would be impossible to carry it that way. Even if made from the lightest of material a winter wind would be pulling at the flag quite a bit.~Gary

I'm totally agree with you Gary. But i've never repositioned an arm on a figure.( in real life i do it everyday, (but he is broken then)) I think i should bend the shoulder in this case too. Well for the first time i find this enough. But you'r right.
