Back to work tomorrow (just after a scheduled holiday, none of that stay at home gubbins for us Crown Servants !) so I'm catching up getting stuff posted on here.
So here we have a 28mm command stand for my Italian Wars Project. A metal officer figure and a plastic standard bearer both from the Perrys, the flag as always is from Petes, although I did paint the edges 👍
2 Cavalry and a flag is 21 points so we are up to 1046. Next up, probably in a week or so will be some Mounted Crossbow.
Very nice command stand,figures and basing and hurrah for Pete's flags!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Many thanks Iain, where would we be without them 😁 (painting our own flags !)
DeleteLovely stand, especially like the basing and how cleanly you’ve worked the figures in! I must check out that flag supplier as well, but a colour laser printer is working pretty well for me so far, plus PowerPoint skills honed over thirty years as a management consultant 🤓
ReplyDeletePete's Flags are awesome, many thanks Simon 👍
DeleteGreat command stand, Ken. Your Italian Wars setup just gets better and better!
ReplyDeleteCheers Noel, it's a nice position to be in having a big army and adding the odd unit here and there 👍
DeleteGreat looking command stand Ken. I really like the grey horse.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Peter, old skool drybrushing right there 👍
DeleteYou're spoiling us today ;-). Great command stand! (If I really tried my best I might match you in painting the edges of flags)
ReplyDeleteTry my best mate 👍 Flag edge painting is a highly skilled job, I did a 4 year apprentice scheme 😁
DeleteFantastic stuff as always Ken, great work.
ReplyDeleteCheers Greg, thank you 👍
DeleteNoice, very noice indeed. Love the standard bearer. I've always felt for the poor slobs that had the 1) 'honour' of carrying these great huge, honkin' wind-sail standards; 2) not being able to defend themselves because of #1; and 3) all while also being a magnet for every d-bag wanting a piece of him. They need to unionize.
ReplyDeleteVery true, it's a little known fact that armour was nothing to do with protection, it was extra weight to stop standard bearers blowing away in the wind 😉
Delete'Hey you, fat bloke, guess what, you're now a standard bearer, congratulations.'
DeleteSounds feasible, should be a PhD in it 😁
DeleteCracking job
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Dave 👍
DeleteGreat post - what are the details for the standard - is it for Italian army or French?
ReplyDeleteThe red fleur de lis is the coat of arms of the City of Florence in Italy 👍
DeleteLovely command stand Ken! I can only echo what the others have already commented.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Mike 👍
DeleteLooks good!
