petesflags web shop

Hi, I've had a couple off days of work and took my first tentative steps in opening a web store. It's early days and there's not much in it other than the 28mm  fabric condottieri flags at the moment. However I plan to place the Italian Wars and the 15mm flags on there in the next couple of weeks. If the shop proves successful I'll have a go at designing a decent logo and a more individual website rather than a free template from the internet. At the moment the shop only accepts payment via papal. Here's the link:

Several years ago I decided to paint a Venetian army using Front Rank figures however I wanted to make the pike  look more Italian  so I had a go at sculpting my own. I'd forgotten all about these until James Roach placed pictures of a unit that I'd given him at the time up on his blog . Looking at the pictures below  I think he's made a really good job of my sculpting efforts; here's the link to James' excellent blog:  http://olicanalad.blogspot.co.uk/

I've got to admit I didn't find my experience of sculpting very rewarding and my hat goes off to anyone who has the skills and the patience to produce wargames figures; I'm just too cack handed. Above a picture of  my own sculpts (the one's with the Mick Jagger lips) and Front rank command figures; below two pictures of the figures painted by  James Roach, cheers Pete 

More Neapolitan, Aragonese Flags; the first one is the flag of  Sicilly and the other two are  taken from a picture depicting Neapolitan troops besieging  Piombino  in 1448; the painting was probably completed in the 1480's. I've no idea who the central flag represents however it looks the part, cheers ~Pete 

Hi , this is my first Neapolitan flag ; the flag is printed onto cloth and the figure is  Perry miniatures.

I've had a change in direction with what I'm going to do with my late Medieval Italian Wars armies as a result this unit is now redundant and now up on ebay.  The figures are Perry plastic with metal heads and some metal games workshop arms and crossbows.  Here's the ebay link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261119938167?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649

Hi,  I've placed six sets of condottieri cloth flags on ebay as the website's likely to take longer than expected, here's the link:
