Hi Daniel,
I have missed a few of your post here and WOW what a lot of progress you have made.
The drummers look really well on the base and the whole dio is coming along superbly.
Great work and thanks for the static grass link.....I have put my order in.
Cheers,
Keith

Thanks for your cheering words Keith!.
I am glad you like the tall grass mat.
The good thing about it is that you can cut it as you want .
Best regards

Great flags. Lead sheet?
It will look really cool with more regiments, each with their own colours. Promises to be a striking scene.

Superb, Daniel. The final touch of the two flags, regimental and the one of the coronel, is really nice.

Hey Colin, the flags are form flag dude, they are paper.
I painted over some of the colors and added some shading and highlights and brushed on a layer of Satin varnish, the originals looked a little faded on the colors.
I am planning to have the regimental and colonel flag for most of the regiments

Thanks Eduardo, I think that the flag pole is still too high, I cutted but I think I will cut a little bit more.
What do you think??

Very nice! Bravissimo!

What do you think??

I agree with you about the flag pole, I think they are too high, I would cut them a little, but not too much, considering that when the flag stands on the floor, the lower part of the fabric, is over the head of the soldier.
In your case the flags stand on the belt, at the high of the hips, so you must count this circumstance.
