Recently I seem to have painted an awful lot of 'Green'
I received a prompt from Lon at Brigade Games a few days ago of his latest releases which reminded me that I had been neglecting one of the other projects that I had ear marked for progress this year.
The latest releases from Brigade are just what I have been waiting for to add a little character to the adventures of Claude Canard, after all what would a napoleonic yarn be without Napoleon myself to be saved from harm...
So I put a small order together for these and a few more French men for the adventures in Egypt, meanwhile whilst I wait for the post from the US it reminded me of the final purchase from Salute that has been sitting on the side lines for a few months.
I picked up a couple of flags from the The Flag Dude
Amanda and Rick O'Brien are a small US company who made the trip over to London, I have always liked the look of their flags but had never had a large enough need to warrant placing an order but when they were on the trade stand next to our game how could I resist.
The flags are made of a heavy paper are well detailed and created in a way so to flutter in the wind, they even come with the braids to finish the piece off.
I had been holding back on the French command section until I had a
suitable flag, so it was good excuse to put the camo paints away for a
while.
