    I am glad you like the tall grass mat.

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

    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 :)

    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.
