That's what we need - a WD3 Job-swap forum.
Knowing this forum, it would quickly descend into Wife-Swap...
Plantation owner sculpted with Jockey boots, riding crop, straw hat and frockcoat.
Including the time to solder wire armature the figure took about 3 hours.
Now with book( Spain and the Independence of the United States) in hand off into the garden.
Tomorrow a couple of Spanish Drummers !

P – can't you buy what you need? I'd have thought 15ACW was well served for flags, if not good luck!
Back from Wales and playing trains in the Seven Valley so I've not done any figures for about 2 weeks except for adding a bit of filler to a few Mahdist bases.
I'm hoping to get some more varnishing and basing done on the Perry Sudan stuff over the next week or so before turning my attention to sorting out the flags that may or may not be easy depending on which approach I decide on. I am very much looking forward to refreshing my enthusiasm for painting with a change of period that is well overdue.

but would you swap it for 10mm flags ? .....
Only ones I've found that I liked were 'Flag Dude' - which is from the US and I think they come already with flag poles attached which won't help me much when my figs have them already...
Anyone knows of good 15mm flags over here, I'd def buy some - especially Federal stripes...
No thanks Goat Major!!! Tried before with some Pendraken figs.... emphasis on 'tried' :D
On my workbench is some balsa wood to make HMS UNA and HMS PAMELA (Chindwin River gunboats) in 1:72, most of my 14th Army Brits, some AB Minis NW Europe 1944-1945 Brits, and the list goes on.....

Purps, try here mate: http://www.zen36884.zen.co.uk/fftl/files/acw.html
10mm Celts. Only about 70 left and then I might actually be able to have a game.
I'm trying to finish the extra bits for my Ancient Spanish 15mm army. Currently finishing off 16 Celtiberians to bring the second FoG BG up to 16 stands. Again, trying to paint them to match stuff I did over 15 years ago so they'll be a little variation in the unit!
They're all Donnington figures and I ordered the extra I needed but had miscounted so ended up a few short so in amongst this little mercenary unit are a naked celt and a random Carthaginian spearman in linen cuirass with bronze shield!
Hopefully they'll all look OK when based up..

Try Warflag. With a good printer and a coat of matt varnish, the flags look awesome. And they're free.
I can feel your pain though, I have both Union and Rebel in 15mm Essex and the flags are pre-cast lead. I found a base coat of white and then drawing the detail on in pencil helped a lot
Got mine from GMB purps - no contest
