Thank you very much for the kind words - always very much appreciated.
Rob - I must admit that I'm buying individual packs from North Star as and when the cash bcomes available. This is one of the reasons it takes so long. When I bought the first battalion, the figures were discounted. Unfortunately, the sale season is now over and full prices apply again. I still think they are worth every penny.
The flags have been bought from Barry's League of Augsburg web-store. I like these very much (which is just as well as I don't want two different flag styles). To make them look how I want takes a few steps :
a. fold them carefully in half;
b. superglue the flag to the pole;
c. PVA glue the rest of the flag;
d. touch up any white showing round the edges;
e. bend to shape (the type of paper used together with the PVA allows you to give them 'natural' looking folds).
Gunter - thanks for the heads up - I have restored the pics (I had moved the originals in my Photobucket account). I've linked to this in case you are interested in having a look through other pics :
