Hi everyone, Just painted up some 15mm ships for a newly started Pirate project. All of my naval knowledge usually lies somewhere between 1760-1814, and can't seem to find many resources on the Spanish navy around 1715-1718. Can anyone recommend/show the uniforms, naval ensigns, etc of the Spanish, particularly ones stationed in the West Indies? Thanks! Jake

I'm hoping someone answers this. I'm thinking of adding Spanish to my Pirate/English 28mm pirates and it would be helpful to have some guidance.

Interestingly enough, something similar has been asked here before: TMP link It's not a lot, but it is a starting point. BWW

I believe they never had any uniformity in uniforms during the piracy period.
