I've just finished painting and basing up the Swiss contingent for my 28mm Italian Wars collection. I think it looks quite the business. link What is your opinion? |

Great work! Your focus on the project has been admirable, too. |

Wonderful. Your paintwork does amazing things to those Old Glory figs |

Very impressive, three pike blocks of 72 figures each. But, interchangeable tubing for the flags, now that is clever. |

Thanks, guys. The flags on tubing is my all time top tip for units that can be used in lots of armies – ECW and TYW can swap, Italian Wars units can fight for anyone, even early 18th C stuff given the number of white coated, etc., units. It would also be a valuable system for swapping between historical and imagination armies in a flash – just have a change of flags to have both! Here's a post showing what it's about. link BTW, not mentioned in the post: These 28mm flags are on 3/32" tubing (brass or aluminium by K&S of Chicago) over 0.047 gauge piano wire (same company). It is so VERY easy, and it costs pennies. |

Your figure painting is celestial. I kneel before you. D'Ewell |

I know the tube tip is an old one. I may have read it in Miniature Wargames in the first 100. It's something I should reconsider now that I'm doing more Italian Wars Armies. |

Very beautiful sight!
Finally after twenty five years my Landsknechte have worthy enemies.

Great work you have done! And thanks for the tube idea – brilliant! |

OK, so the Italian Wars like that is my obsession too. However, I doubt I will ever get there. Well done that man! |
