Getting better at it - hopefully!

Not quite finished yet - but the corner details of the Imperial cipher and the second coat of white completed today, so the ribbons, background (green touch up) and the staff to go.

Hi Jeff,

Bravo! You are doing your usual outstanding job of painting. Your flag looks wonderful! Everytime I observe your progress with painting a given item, I wonder how you could possibly top your last effort. And, then I discover how you can!

Thanks for sharing the flag. I shall look forward to the final product!

Warmest personal regards,

Pat

Great job, Jeff. I was wondering if you had a small enough brush to clean up the gold "bleed", and you sure did. Beautiful flag. -- Al

Al, It's not the size of the brush but the tip that does the fine work.

Nice work Jeff as always.

Nah, he just reversed the image in photoshop.

Cracking job on the flag Jeff, very neat and rich in colour.

Konrad, thanks, but they did a very good job on the British Guardsmen.

Great job, Jeff. I was wondering if you had a small enough brush to clean up the gold "bleed", and you sure did. Beautiful flag. -- Al

Al, thanks, I have a brush that has about 6 hairs left (trimmed down over the years)

Al, It's not the size of the brush but the tip that does the fine work.

Nice work Jeff as always.

Chuck

Chuck, thanks, all the raised detail on the casting really helps guide the tip into the right places.

Cheers! Scott, Simon is quite right - I did use Photoshop or is that Paintshop Pro? but only on the non-green colours

Very nice job Jeff !

Michel, I'm glad you like it - a nice choice of colours you made there!

Its under St George who is mounted on a white horse, in the red shield, on the chest of the double headed black eagle on the orange circle.
