I have finished a generic French officer using a JC recast one piece figure (FN224)
This is a very nice casting and had very little flash to clean.
I have not yet given him a name but no doubt something will come to mind.
I have also finished my 16 British Fusiliers to make up a 2nd Fusilier unit - the 23rd Fusiliers
The cast on flags were tricky to paint but seem to have come out ok.
I have tried to match these newly painted figures (on the left) with the renovated ones I picked up at Oxfam on the right.

Nice work Mark. I like the way you have achieved depth in colour - especially your blues.

Super impressed by the hand painted flags.
Very nicely done Mark, I have yet to paint any British flags myself but yours are very impressive!
Hi Tony
I used a little shading and highlighting on the blue. I tried to keep it subtle rather than using garish multiple highlighting used on 28mm figures.

Thanks for the kind comments.
I am now ready to try painting a coke can flag a la WM.
I do like one piece castings and cast on flags which I agree are difficult to paint , yours have turned out well .
Cracking General figure, nicely painted.
Your Union flag looks better (more accurate) than some commercially produced items.
Well done.
Very handsome chaps Mark...
All the best Aly
They are all totally brilliant, Mark.
I couldn't decide what to call this General either!
Best regards
WM
