As I said the flag is speculative as there are several possibilities as to its look. We cannot be certain the unit carried a Colour, but likewise I am not sure we can be certain they didn't.<br /><br />There is a link to Maverick in my Product Links on the right hand bar.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to the Dutch as I will then just have the Badeners and Poles to do plus the artillery.carojonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826580638291659193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-70232539772937014242014-07-14T18:29:01.535-07:002014-07-14T18:29:01.535-07:00Very nicely done.

I really like the "on the spot" pictures such as the Suhr Brothers pictures of the Dutch army in Hamburg in 1806 which I have been looking at for the next project.carojonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826580638291659193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-45944528117990360172014-07-13T10:03:13.061-07:002014-07-13T10:03:13.061-07:00Hi Jon, thank you.

I couldn't find a suitable figure and then decided that as the unit was being constructed for Talavera the blue look would be more appropriate. The Dutch will provide a good splash of white.carojonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11826580638291659193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2591229843590982581.post-45113761818861630532014-07-13T09:49:26.145-07:002014-07-13T09:49:26.145-07:00Cheers Simmy, thanks for your comment.
