Thank you.

@ Sandor: I used a pattern for the banner which is shown many times in the book "Weisskunig". There it is used by mounted troops as well as with landsknechts. The book "Weisskunig" celebrates the live of emperator Maximilian I. and is illustrated by many woodcut. The banner clearly shows elements used Maximilian`s father in law Charles the Bold of Burgundy.


See here for example:

Nice paintwork - I like it!
Whose banner is it?
It has some Burgundian motives, but in its entirety I haven't seen it yet!
Well done!
