Martyn,

You're full of surprises. Didn't know you collected Somerset. Is the building Somerset or JJD?

This is a wonderful rendition of the event.

I was wondering how often this has been done: Are JJD and Somerset the only ones?

Thank you Martyn the painter surely did a great job - admirable work. I am still
following the exhausting "Trial and Error" road hopeing to find THE solution to produce a
decent looking flag. Still waiting for enlightment though ...
Thanks again you really got some nice looking figures there
kind regards
Wolfgang

You know, give him a Gatling Gun and a couple of armored cars, and a few Highlanders and Gordon might have lived!
