These would allow us to do extra colour bearers to replace specific eagle flags; British "flying" colours; etc when our units were not at a specific engagement.

For instance, I have done the 9th Foot with the specific Brittania emblem, but with two other officers holding cased colours, I could say they are any other yellow-faced battalion.

I would like to do a British battalion or two standing on defense, with the colour officer(s) holding the staff on the ground, with his left hand well up inside the colours. I am using Victrix, and may "jury-rig" an arm, then buy the pre-colored colours, and fold them once I get them.

Here is the Tradition (Stadden sculpted) figure in 30mm:

Does anyone have a source that does British colours "bunched" around/toward the staff, so an office can hold the cloth inside his hand while on defense? Might this also have been done when the battalion was on the march, or advancing?

There is always the "special" that came with the Black Powder Albion Triumphant Peninsular rule book.

Thanks, Brian. That looks like something we can do today with current figures, as the colour is totally free to "flow."
