I must say, all the AWI guys posting on this forum are doing amazing work. I’m really looking forward to starting an AWI project as soon as I finish my Civil War madness. Thanks for the inspiration.

With some trepidation, I offer a suggestion (the only one I could possibly think of) that might improve on the already well-nigh perfect. I notice the flags have vertical waves in them, but basically fly directly out horizontally from the pole. In anything other than a very high wind, I think this is extremely unlikely.  There will always be a degree of "droop" the further away the material gets from the support of the pole.  I try and achieve this by folding in such a way as to get triangles, rather than rectangles, between folds.  I try an angle of about 45 degrees to the vertical to either the left or right (entirely a matter of personal preference, but may depend on whether there is a side of the flag of which you are particularly proud) and then again in the opposite direction. Two folds is usually enough, and when teased out on the staff they hang lower at the extremity than at the staff. I think the whole looks  more convincing while still exhibiting the detail of the flag.  Anyone else any views, or willing to share their own techniques?

I scrunch mine while the pva is still wet, they tend to dry straighter, always before painting, otherwise not thought about it...  :-\

Like the casualty marker triangles. May have to pinch this idea for my FOGN army, where we have a similar. 3 levels of morale effects.

And goes without saying fantastic painting

Cheers chaps, but not all of those are mine.  the last four pictures are by another great brush.  Many thanks for the feed back though, I've been a little poorly of late and it's great to hear I've not lost my touch.
