These French Irish flags will just not let go, it seems. Here is the alternative set of designs for Berwick from the 1721 manuscript:
And next, I think it really will be back to the Prussians...
Being a uniform and flag design service to wargamers and to the imaginary crowned heads of 17th and 18th Century Europe, especially of the Seven Years War period - now By Appointment to the Court of Saxe-Bearstein! (But please note that the uniforms and flags presented here are not fictional - they are genuine 17th and 18th Century uniforms and flags that are as authentic as I can make them from my sources.)

Outstanding again, David! I am looking through my Lead Pile to see if enough 18mm French infantry are present to field a battalion or two of these units. While my SYW focus has been on the Prussian-Austrian-Russian Theatre of Ops, your work is pushing me in the direction of expansion.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jonathan! :-) I can imagine that the French might just have loaned a brigade of Irish to the Austrians - so I hope you are able to find enough figures to do it...
ReplyDeleteIf you do, please send pictures of the troops and their flags! Thanks.
All the best,
David.
A most enjoyable series of flags for the Irish regiments... well done...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Steve. I have enjoyed doing them!
ReplyDeleteAll the best,

Excellent work as usual David.
ReplyDeleteI must get to using these on some regiments.
Thank you, Duc. Yes, please do - and do let me see picture, please! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteAll the best,
David.
One of the most interesting and unique French colours. Very nicely done. Many thanks for your work!
ReplyDeleteThanks, André. I have really enjoyed doing the French Irish flags. But it's back to Prussians next!
