Wow!! Looks great Kurt. The flag is super. Need to find mine in the GGA barracks. Don't remember the flag being engraved. You are a free hand master if not.

Impressive in every category both sculpt and paintwork. I'm sure the casting is great too coming from CGS.

This is another brilliant casting effort by Graham at CGS. The flag is beautifully detailed on both sides, surprisingly thin and flawlessly cast. I honestly don’t know how he does it.

The rest of the kit is terrific as well.

Excellent! I believe you’ll enjoy this one. One bit of advice - I’d recommend wearing a rubber glove on your non-dominant hand while you’re painting the flag. It’s a challenge to paint, and the glove will let you handle it and avoid rubbing the paint off. I rarely use a glove when I paint, but it really helped with this one.

That's a great advice. I don't wear gloves too but will give it a try.
