Here's my representation of Michelotto da Cotignola at the Battle of San Romano, figures are Mirliton 

Here's a close up of the flag

  1. Are these flags going to be commercially available?

    The reason I ask is that I'm going to be putting on a demo game of the Battle of Fornovo and could do with a LOT of help re: heraldry etc.

  2. Hi Darrell, At the moment I sell the flags via ebay and my business email petesflags(at) yahoo (dot) com

    Don't blame me for the name; however I do have one figure manufacturer interested in retailing them for me. If this falls through I'll probably get round to setting up a website when I have enough flags to get going. At the moment I'm selling them for £1 per paper flag and £1.50 per cloth; with discounts available for 10 + flags.

    I'll look forward to seeing your Fornovo game as it should really be something. I'm interested in completing some flags for the leaders at Fornovo. So if you have any idea of which ones you would like let me know and if I can find some information on them I'll have a go. However I'll be finishing the flags for Anghiari in the next couple of weeks.

    cheers Pete

  3. Pete,

    I have managed to discover very little in terms of the heraldry for the leaders at Fornovo barring Charles III!!

    There seems to be very little fertile ground in terms of information out there. Of everyone in Blogland that I know you seem the best equiped to deal with the problem so I wait with baited breath on the outcome of your Fornovo investigations.

    Seriously, I can't wait to see what you come up with.

    Darrell.
