Thanks for the supportive comments – much appreciated. Frederick – they were not primed white but undercoated and oil washed as described on my blog – early on in the January archives I think! Smolders – I've a simple tutorial on the blog for how I paint/do my flags. Generally spaking though I buy any complex ones! Thanks again. Olddorg |
