I've had a change in direction with what I'm going to do with my late Medieval Italian Wars armies as a result this unit is now redundant and now up on ebay.  The figures are Perry plastic with metal heads and some metal games workshop arms and crossbows.  Here's the ebay link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261119938167?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649

Hi,  I've placed six sets of condottieri cloth flags on ebay as the website's likely to take longer than expected, here's the link:

Revised Borgia flag no 5, still not the best picture but I'm happy with this flag in the flesh; there's also a cavalry version of this flag, cheers Pete

Borgia flag number 5, this is a pretty crappy picture so will try and put  a better one up in a day or so. I've now completed 7 Borgia flags in total so will get back to completing the Milanese flags for the battle of Anghiari, cheers Pete

3rd and 4th Borgia flags; the infantry flag represents Cesare's coat of  arms following his marriage to Charlotte d'Albret. The cavalry flag  represents the flag of le seigneur Jean de Sante Colombe one of Cesare's lieutenants  the horseman and and their banners wore the colours red and yellow in honour of Louis XII and on the chests of the riders was wrote CESAR and CAESAR. Thanks to Massimo Predonzani for  his support in completing this flag, cheers Pete

2nd Borgia Flag, this flag is based on a coat of arms in a book I bought in 
Rome on holiday about 10 years ago. The flag depicts Cesare as Duke Valentinois the same coat of arms are depicted on a convent in Imola and somewhere else that I can't remember at the minute. I toyed with the idea of having the field of the flag red however the original arms shows red cords so went with an off white.

The first of the Borgia flags. Figure by TAG and the flag printed on cloth.

As above; i'll truy and get some better pics over the weekend when I've a bit more time.
