Rick Research Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I've seen pressed celluloid "mock embroidered" stars for NCOs-- like the one you show on the far right only plain, without the little "spangle" disks around the center of the star. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 HelloThanks for your comments and sorry for the style changes. Three more ranks:Surprisingly, not many people seem to be interested...Spanish history interested forums are differents than english language ones. Is a tradition to make "articles" like this (better than this ), in special in WW1 matters because there are not almost books in spanish and few people understand english, french, german... maybe it could beout of place here. But is the only way I know to pay the information i'm getting in the forum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 Boris, your rank graphicis are looking good. I can't wait to see the finished product.Don't forget Generaloberst and feldmarschall.Hello ccj, thank you very much. I didn't have a good example for Generaloberst. You'll have to choose one style (the more reallistic in your opinion) for each group of ranks or for all ranks when the work will be over.And if it is possible a regimental colour table.Regards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's more realistic looking to me. If I had your talent I would create a chart divided in three parts, enlisted ranks, officer ranks, and general ranks. As for the backing colors, I would pick as many from the chart for infantry and maybe a few from arty and cavalry to use and list the rgt or branch under the rank to identify the unit. I think there's a color chart on the first listed site above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 Thanks again ccj, I'm trying to draw it as realistic as possible with the photos I have seen here... It is near to impossible to find a detailed photo in internet.Looking good Boris,are you going to do something with the reserve aspirant officers?RegardsGlennThanks GlennMaybe when I finish common infrantry ranks. I only have text-information about it. Main patterns are finished and is not work to make those special-ranks, althought I understood they have not only collar badges but cuffs also to differentiate between grades. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
