White evergreen fall garden flags are perhaps not the best choice for a dining room – they are very susceptible to being stained due to their light color. Each flag is full color and drawn to the highest detail to insure superior reproduction quality at large or small sizes. The exponential growth of access to high quality images of figures and games through the number of hobby magazines and then the internet and the world of online blogs and forum boards has driven me and many others I expect to ever increasing efforts to ‘improve’ the finals appearance of our figures. So, I’m a born again painter of wargames figures using a block colour, one highlight and some ink washes. So, when it came to the Mahdists it was back to block painting, ink washing and one highlight in the details. I enjoy my painting, even when it’s curtailed by these very issues.

At first it was Humbrol enamels, the smell of White Spirit brush cleaner, and rows of 24 infantry figures being batch painted: pink flesh, block painting, no shades or highlights, shiny yacht varnish brushed on. Friends and blog followers remain relatively positive about my efforts, the figures feature in my Wargames Illustrated articles, they will do as Phil says! You can colour the flag with various kinds of bright colours so it would be a treat to look at, and will be eye catching to draw customers towards your customers. Draw attention to special sales, new arrivals of inventory, or seasonal events. When it comes to selection of flags, flagpoles and accessories for national or international event then you need reference of leading vendor like Online Stores. The sentiment and national feeling that is attached with our country is something that we can never put in words. To help celebrate the arrival of the new animals, the park put together a fun video that introduces them. The same team here will be going to Mekah to help out the Haj operation and upon finishing Haj, they will rush back top Medinah to receive pilgrims visitng Mekah after Haj from Mekah.

Increasing pocket money and paper round earnings saw me branch out into larger scale plastic figure kits, by Airfix at first and later the occasional Historex kit. The use of brightly colored flags has turned out to be one of the most productive ways to advertise a brand, service, product or an event. The brand new event will take place on weekends from January 9th through February 28th, plus January 18th and February 15th as bonus days. You may find, like others, that your name and brand will successfully get advertised to masses of people which is the main objective. Six Flags has already opened or received permission to open 23 of their 27 parks, and are working with officials to get the remaining 4 parks operating once again. On the fresh milk, don’t get me wrong. It was time for the big match and we don’t win many away matches – the home wins are important, but it is the away wins that are the clinchers. It was at this stage, newly married and in our first home in Walsall, that I first encountered 25mm Hinchliffe metal Napoleonic figures which I bought in the now long gone Model Shop (Grainger’s?) to collect and paint for a change.

Some time in the late 1970’s I discovered Plaka acrylic paint in the local Art Shop and enamels were consigned to history. Six Flags New England has gained approval from local authorities to build what should be the world’s tallest Star Flyer ride for the park’s 2013 season. Battles raged across carpets, the cobbled yard and the garden, depending on season and weather! Crocus bulbs begin to poke through what was only recently frozen ground, and an occasional rabbit hops through the front yard. Partly of course that’s been driven by aging issues of eye and hand, but I’ve come to live with those. Having been doing this pretty steadily for 50 years I thought I’d have a go explaining my own approach as it’s evolved, particularly over the last few years as issues surrounding aging have come to the fore. It has caused me in the last few years to question why such a level of effort and detail is necessary in painting armies, unless of course painting is your major focus in the hobby. From Plaka I graduated to Colour Party acrylic paint, which I stayed with for years learning to shade, often using artists’ inks, and to highlight.
