Thanks for your kind comment Guy.ย The flags on the last two units are made by me using the SYW project data, copy, cut,paste, draw, sized to requirements and printed on cheap Tesco’s paper.

I prefer the Austrians to the Prussians boxes Jim, though in the Prussian marching box you get a shed load of spare hats.
These are from the Austrian command.ย With thanks to Plastic Soldier Review for the photos.
These are from Austrian marching.
