Generic British Infantry Colours For The War Of The Spanish Succession

There is rather a paucity of known infantry colours of the period so I was asked back in April to do a few sheets of generic colours for British infantry in the War Of The Spanish Succession, and so I did. I have now added a small sheet of post-1707 colours too. The cipher of Queen Anne is on many of them.







This is a shot of Simon Miller's troops with some of these flags:

  3. Naturally those will be very useful I'm sure and they certainly tick many boxes for my ImagiNations forces:)! Of course it would help if I actually painted more of the bugg*rs to be able to use the flags;).
