Thanks for the nice comments.
I am looking forward to having the full squadron done(12) - I may make one of them a standard bearer and give him a small banner.
I was expecting to put red and white pennants on the lances as well but the picture tha Auton uploaded on my cry for help did not have any. I thought about this and presume that this is due to the changes in modern warfare that were taking places at the time. Originally red and white pennants were used on lances as they scared horses. I think by this time the number of cavalry in an army was a lot less than in the past and as such the lancers were less likely to meet other cavalry in a conflict. Therefore it is better to blend in with background than have this bright red and white flag saying please point that machine gun over here and pull the trigger. This is my theory and apart from the reason why pennants wre red and white may be complete rubbish.
With regards to the storage - I thought this may be a problem as well once I had glued the horse onto the washer I am using as a base. So far those that I have undercoated awaiting to be painted (sitting in along queue) are being kept in an old Games Worshop miniature box that I have. They are on there side with the base being slid down the edge of the foam. This works well for the moment and I am hoping that once I have completed the bases that I will still be avle to do this. Otherwise I have a problem.
Dodge thanks for the words mate. When all 12 are finished I am going to try and ensure that your Chinese get the point :
