I used it as a demonstration support during modeling salons, and I finished it for the show of Montrouge

Is there a special technique for painting fleurs-de-lys in 30mm? I have never managed to get them symmetrical.

Thank you for your compliments!!


Ed, here is my method to achieve fleurs de lys:
1 - I draw several identical skeletons with brown lines

2 à 6 - With a brush size 000, and by blocking my breathing, I lay my yellow paint following each line of the skeleton; It is the pressure on the brush that gives me the width of each petal
I realize 4 to 5 flowers of lilies and I stop

Great brush work going on there, a great feeling of movement in the flag!

I had been struggling with fleur de lis on one of the glorious empires sets and ended up banging my head against the wall- this is great advice Daniel thank you. And the flag is of course superb!
