My Norman plastic army has grown so it's time they had a big banner option and here is the first one. Banner is from the Battleflag Norman Conquest Plastic Infantry sheet. Figure is a regular Conquest Norman with a spear option.
This figure still needs a coat of Matt spray but I thought I would post it before that step just because I can. The shield design is also a decal from the Battleflag sheet. I looked for one from the designs remaining that had colors found in the big flag. I carried this over to the miniature but with a variation in the blue color as you can see. I was worried about the big decal cracking after I applied it to a sheet of paper in respect to folding it together then trying to get a few curves in it. But it only had 1 small split appear that you can't even notice now. I think my highlights on the blue garment got a little crude on this one but overall he should add a big splash of color and inspire my Norman toy soldiers to great deeds on the table top.
Cheers from Brendon (The Kiwi)
