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.)
This is my version of the Dutch Aylva Infantry Regiment flag captured at Seneffe 1674 by the French and depicted in the Triomphes Louis XIV. I was asked to produce the Colonel's flag for the sake of completeness but note that it is totally speculative and it is probably best avoided by authenticity freaks!
For regimental details please see my other captured flags of the Aylva regiment posted on Saturday 12th October.

Beautiful work David.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ray. :-) It took a while but the Dutch flags are pretty attractive and so worth the effort...

Lovely flag David, very nice indeed.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Donnie. :-) It will take quite sometime but there are plenty of Dutch flags to recreate!

Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Steve. :-) I look forward to seeing these in action (but I say that about all my flags, of course... ;-)).
DeleteAll the best,

Great work and the pattern reminds me of a sweet wrapper; a Scottish marsh mallow type treat?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Steve. :-) Yes, I agree they do look rather sweet wrapper-ish!
