Anyone know where to get a replacement mount for George with stirrups? |

Take or send it back to Eureka. Nic will replace I'm sure. OR, break out the Green Stuff and make your own.
Cheers
BTW. Pics of the figures can be seen at me BLOG (unpainted)

Very nice, where did you get info on flags for Provincials? |

There are a few topics on TMP about flags for Provincials. A TMP Search will turn some up.
TMP link Basically, they follow the Warrants for British regulars. The blog photo shows a unit with red facings. The Warrant specifies that a unit with red facings would have a red George Cross on a white field in the Regimental Colour. Note that his drummer also shows reversed colors. The closest analogy to FIW Provincials would be AWI Loyalist units. There is a surviving Colour for Butler's Rangers, in a closet at West Point the last I heard. It's a King's Colour, and rather primitive looking.
link The Butler's Rangers reenactor group has both a King's colour and a Regimental Colour, following the warrant. FIW Provincials were local troops raised and disciplined and clothed by British regulations, just like Loyalists. |
