Never really found a flag that looks the part.
Some use a silk flag, or a decal on thin foil... like on chocolate bar.

Ian Becc do both types of flag as the white ensign on my hms norfolk comes from BECC an is cotton so it will blow around in the wind like a real one but when i ordered my big 3 inch white ensign for my big tiger i forgot about Becc an ordered it from ebay an it is also cotton as i have bought some silk flags from a chap called mike doen hand made flags but bein silk they are exspensive

Well done with the walkway painting. Definitely worth doing. A bit of colour and it would have jumped out at you every time in the future.
