Wouldn't it be great to see Idi Amin's Insignia as Ugandan Field Marshal on those huge British gold cord shoulder boards. It was with Ugandan coat of arms in silver thread on red backing above silver wreath with brown crossed batons on red backing.

Well there are som similar careers: Jean Baptiste Bernadotte rose from Sergeant-Major (Adjutant Sous-Officier) to Marshal of France and eventually King of Sweden.

Dear Mr. Pavel Močoch & Mario Sitek,
I greatly enjoy your work on the country of Zimbabwe. Would be so kind as to make me some dress shoulder knot graphics without any devices on them. (Blank). I would like to make better Uganda Idi Amin insignias. (examples attached)
Sincerely,
DarthGaddafi

Yes that should work. Thank you ever so much, I have been needing one of these for a long time and I cannot make one in MS Paint - impossible.
So this will work for: Uganda, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, and any other country or dictatorship that used these intricate shoulder knots.
Again Thanks!
DG

Here my attempts with the blank template. I like the gold color on the old ones, but it is still nice to have a blank one to manipulate.
Thanks to folks from whom I borrow images to manipulate.
