Also, I only use the yellow Ordinarfahnen for all but the Grenadiers and Cuirassiers, so the extra Leibfahne are largely wasted. Between that and the better base pricing, the Ramos flags are a much better choice for my own Austrians!Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-77004428235330698052019-11-07T21:30:56.861-05:002019-11-07T21:30:56.861-05:00Yes, they will!

I'd love to do Wagram again (I can't believe it has been 10+ years already), but not sure I am up for that and a Campaign in a Day at the same Historicon! Just setting up the table and troops took about 5 hours in 2009, with a lot of help!Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-7858000840504296952019-11-07T21:26:30.228-05:002019-11-07T21:26:30.228-05:00Thanks, Gary!

The technique I used on these seemed to work really, really well - paint white, stain heavily with Delta CC Wedgewood Blue, then heavy black magic wash. I was going to re-paint the belts white, but decided it was unnecessary.
