Lovely parade. Your mobile gives good photos (can hardly tell the difference), maybe slightly warmer than your camera.

Beautiful work.  Sadly I now have to look for 15mm bags to put over my Swedes heads   :D

Now my period but some really well put together units you have there! Congrats on getting so much done. Like the flags but could one of these big monsters really be handled one-handed? Who cares, the flags fluttering about make the army!

Thanks gents really appreciate the feedback.

The flags are probably too big and probably coudnt be carried one handed, but as you say who cares its about how they look for the most part.

Actually the size of those flags are pretty consistent with line drawings I have seen of standard bearers in various resource guides for the period.
