Progress has been slow on the painting front of late, but I have eventually managed to complete this command base for the Polish foot. The flag is for the Trzywdar clan and I downloaded the image from a Polish heraldry website.
I have also done some restoration work on these 40mm homecast Great Northern War Russian dragoons. Some had developed a case of the dreaded 'lead rot' and needed cleaning up and repainting.
Hello Mike The infantry flag is homemade using the basic 'paint'package on the PC. The command base flag was also homemade but the heraldic detail came from http://akromer.republika.pl/polska.html which has loads of information on Polish flags and heraldry.
I have been wargaming on and off for the best part of fifty years. Starting, as many of my generation did, with the range of airfix plastic figures. My first and abiding interest has been the Napoleonic period, which at first meant that figure conversion was the only option; and very messy it was too. In later years my interests have expanded to include periods from the 12th to 19th centuries, with a particular interest in eastern Europe. I do not belong to a club, but I have a regular opponent and we try and meet each week.
Good work on both of these units. The homecast units are always special. Where did you get the flags in the first photo?
