Title: Russian Napoleonic Dragoon standards/guidons
Post by: rangerdad on 21 October 2020, 02:54:13 PM
Regardless of whether Russian dragoon regiments actually carried these in battle, as my pack contents include a standard bearer I shall be in need of flags

My usual Napflaf/Warflag resource has failed me, is there anything else for 10mm height Russian dragoon standards out there ?

Just cut a piece of copy paper the correct size and shape, PVA in place.

Paint it either deep red or dark blue according to your whim.

Dot a few bits of gold in the centre and the corners.

In 10mm it doesn't matter much.

It'll do for me.

Check out Maverick Model Flags. Stu will resize the depth of the flags to meet your requirements. He does this for me every time

This page has small depictions of Russian standards...

I suspect you might need to put your hand in your pocket although this site might help http://www.vexillographia.ru/russia/rarmy000.htm.  

GMB Designs have all Russian cavalry standards you are likely to need, but in 15mm and 28mm.  Where flags are concerned I buy larger scale anyway and use them as masters.  I scan them, resize them and print them myself.  If I make any mistakes when mounting them, I can just print more.
