A flag for the Guards and going down a rabbit hole

I have to admit that the Guards are still not completely finished but I do at least have this King's Colour done (although I think for the Guards this would actually be the Regimental Colours). One reason that I haven't quite finished the unit is that I went down this rabbit hole which sucked away a couple of hours I'll never get back.

And then I went down this one...

The next post will be the finished unit - I promise!

Stokes you are too kind!

Nice one, are all your AARs going to be feature films from now on?

Stryker said...

It was fun to do Rob but not sure about that!

*Laughter*. This is powerful and somewhat disconcerting sorcery, Ian. Lovely flag, nonetheless. You're absolutely right about the King's/Regimental colour swapperoony thing going on with the Guards - it's all due to them being especially nobby, I'm told.

Rabbit holes the curse of the wargamer! Good fun though!

Thanks WM, those Guards are a breed apart!

Stryker said...

Cheers Matt, I’m thinking of a full-length remake if Rod Steiger and Christopher Plummer are still available(?)

Thanks Donnie, this is fun and a tad addictive…
