How to create a nice looking flag.
« on: 27 September 2012, 02:33:00 PM »
Here is another way to create a nice simple looking flag, as you know i upload all the flags i have made at 600dpi which is high quality, but even at that set number i knew the quality can be improved greatly.
I know wargamers like to create flags using foil from tubes ect and paint onto it, but a very large
percent of gamers just want a flag on a pole quickly, so this is for you.You have to buy a can and some paper but once got it last a long time and worth the money, all flags are free off the website and if i have the time i am open to make for you.

enjoy malc the manc.

The Victorian Outpost

Its a new gaming place in Grimsby with new terrain and new scenery, lots of respect for all wargamers and is the best place to game in town.

Anybody who wishes to visit the venue to arrange a game then  just pm me and lets roll those dice.

Very nice.
But it's the "stick it together" part at the end I always have an issue with.  I can't ever seem to get the two sides to line up right.

If you do the pre fold before you take the backing off and crease it so it lines up, it should work nice.
Looking for a set of rules that adaptable for different genres.

Well well, a very interesting little article. Many thanks for this as I am going to be doing a battle standard bearer soon and am designing the image on my computer so this will give me the idea i need for printing it  :)
