Very nicely executed, including the bases.  One thing though, if you'll permit me, the flags are much too big.  The 1804 Model infantry drapeau was really very small, 80 x 80 cm (about 31.5 inches square).

And that represents how large a difference in 10mm scale? 🤔

A significant difference actually.  The flags in the video appear to be about twice the size they ought to be.  They should approximately 5 x 5mm in 1:150/10mm scale.

Don't worry about the flags. The figures look great to me.

What is that supposed to mean?  The figures do, indeed, look great, the flags not so much.

Hi lekw, this image gives an idea of the relative size of the flag to a man.  I usually make mine half the height of the figure, which looks about right.
