BACK BANNER SMALL TUTORIAL AND KOREAN INFANTRY

If you are fun of flying baner from Samurai movies comonly known as "shashimono" you find helpfull this small tutorial. First the tools very thin wire,wire cutter any tin foil from food is the best and is free and super glue.  
You mesure the wire from the midlle of the figure the waist most of the samurai figures have hole for  the sashimono you bend the wire to fit in the hole and then you cut in the height you want usually little just above the head is good, you make two or trhee time the same using the first wire you make and if is right for guide and thats it, then  you bend the tin foil around the wire before you put it in the hole you cut as you like paint in the scheme and colors that you need and you have your custom "shashimono".
The above is few examples what you can do with your wires and tin foils i hope you like it and remember all is based in experiment and personal choice dont afraid to experiment and dont desapointed with the first failure allways you have another chance no one they come to cut your head off .
