History and uniforms magazine
Massimo Predonzani the author of several books and articles on Italian history put me on to this new E-zine which can be downloaded for free at this address: http://www.historyanduniforms.com/ subsequent magazines will cost around 3.5 euros. It's well worth a look and the article on the Venetians in the 1680's was pretty motivational. Massimo tells me the next volume will contain an article on the Battle of Agnadello which having read Massimo's previous work should prove a useful addition to anyone's library. cheers Pete |

print your own cloth flags
hi, I've managed to source some inkjet printer friendly cloth that 's a doddle to use without having any technical knowhow so I'll be starting to sell blank sheets so people can print their own flags from their own designs. To illustrate this the flag illustrated have not been hand painted but taken from google and manipulated slightly. The design has been taken from this excellent site of Italian re-enactors.http://www.famaleonis.com/ please have a look the gallery images are superb. |
Hi, I've placed the printable cloth up for sale on Ebay for th eprice of 33 for one sheet, £13:00 for five and £25 for 10 sheets, here's the link to my listings if anyone's interested: petesflags |

Renaissance figures
Burgundian standard bearer by Ken Pearce; I really like the way this horse has been painted and love the clean and vivid colours Ken has achieved on this Perry figure. |
