1st Schleswig-Holstein War is mid-C19th so double check that burgundy colour before you paint.

I don't know!   :D  Unfortunately, our reference books on the period are still with the designer, so I can't check them.  A quick Google shows some artillery finished in a dark green, but no pics of limbers.
