I got a second order from Pete's flags a few months back, with a bevy of WotR banners not included in my first order. I've deliberately posted the images in low resolution. the actual flags are a wonder of detail, and perfectly sharp.
Lord Zouche of Harringworth, a staunch Yorkist and supporter of Richard II, he was captured at Bosworth Field, but his life was spared. Livery Sable and Murrey.
Here's one of the Zouche flags in use.
Jasper Tudor; Lancastrian Uncle of Henry VII. Livery colors Argent and Vert.
Here's Jasper with some of his flags. I had more flags to use than I had figures to carry them, so on my latest set of command bases, I've drilled a hole in the base to take the wire flagpole, and added some rocks (talus) to suggest the flag was stuck in the ground an its stability bolstered by the surrounding rocks.
Tudor livery colors were Argent and Vert.
Sir Edward Poynings, Lancastrian/Tudor, best known for his actions in Ireland.
Sir Thomas Stanley, Yorkist. He fought at Northampton, 2nd St Albans, Towton and Bosworth. Livery Tawney and Vert.
Sir William Stanley, Yorkist, fought at Blore Heath, Mortimer's Cross, Towton, Hedgeley Moor, Hexham, Barnet, Tewkesbury, and Bosworth. Livery - Gules.
Here's Sir William with two of his flags.
The Stag's head is prominent.
For the King (but which one)?
Sir John Howard, Duke of Norfolk. Yorkist, fought at Northampton, 2nd St Albans, Towton, Barnet, Tewkesbury, and Bosworth.
Here's one of Sir John's flags in use with some longbowmen.
Pete's Flags are terrific, and nice work on painting the edges. I always think it improves the look, even though it can be a bit of trial and error to obtain the correct shade.
ReplyDeleteEven if it's not exactly a match, still much better than the white edges!
DeleteTwo flags on a base! Flag inflation! Kidding, look good fluttering in the imaginary breeze.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I've resisted that on my Napoleonic figures the way some will do King's color and regimental color, or the Leibfahne and Ordinarfahne, but these flags were too gorgeous to waste. Besides, I already used 2 flags ! on my earlier WotR command bases! :-)
DeleteThese really are very nice indeed Peter - and they look great with your command figures too!
ReplyDeleteThey are superb flags beyond doubt.
DeletePete’s Flags are superb. They decorate my WOTR armies too.
ReplyDeleteSee, we both used the same adjective; "Superb" is really the truth for these beauties!
DeleteGreat looking figures and impressive flags.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gary. I have 3 units of Peasant types to paint up as "Very inferior Array"/rabble; a few more of the simple flags might get used there. That should pretty much complete the Wars of the Roses project, aside from overlap with the HYW.
DeleteGreat looking banners and flags for the WotR, Peter!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dean; highly recommended!
DeleteExcellent command stands with Pete's splendid flags!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
