Wars of the Roses Earl of Warwick

 
 
Hi, this is the first flag in the set I'm completing for Richard Neville Earl of Warwick who was one of the key players in the Wars of the Roses until his demise in 1471. the flag's not quite finished but not too far away. I'm busy working on his heraldic banner at the moment so hopefully this set will be done by the end of the week.  cheers Pete
and here's a couple of pics of his heraldic standard

  1. Really great stuff Pete, I look forward to seeing your take on Warwicks ridiculously complex heraldry. I have tried to paint it a few times in the past and failed miserably!

    2. Hello Pete, well i guess Richard III and Dukes of Somerset would be great, and essential for a war of Roses collection as they were two main players in the civil strife! And thankyou for asking me. I look forward to any new releases.
