Got some Schleswig-Holstein jagers over, so I decided to paint them as Mecklenburg jägers. The Mecklenburg jägers did use a similar uniform, but the leather shako dident have a back peack.

Very nice indeed sir! 8)
Excellent stuff, Flodin. Tell me, was the black, red and gold flag in use that early?
As I recall from my history of about 20 years ago it was first used in the 1848 revolution by students, but may have been used earlier as a plumein the army...
I'm off to research that now! ;)
yup, I was right, very detailed wiki article. It was used by students and democrats from 1848 and occasionally as the state flag in Northern Germany until it's adoption by the Republic in 1919
As Mad Lemmey said, it was used in the 1848 revolution. Apparently did not the newly formed Schleswig-Holstein Army use any regimental flags/standards. But illustrations from the period shows the the German tricolour being used by the Schleswig-Holstein Army, so I decided to use the german flag.
Cheers
Flodin
Well, you learn something new every day! :)
Hi all, has managed to paint some more Germans, despite all the time I spent on playing WOT the last months :(
Anyway, here are the first Prussians :)

Very nice, Flodin. The white summer trousers on the second guard infantry unit is a nice touch.
A delight to see, especially to see someone who cares about his flags. 2nd Battalion in both cases I think? And the correct pole colour! =D> =D> =D>

Beautiful work, lovely flags, and my favourite 19th century army - Hanoverians!
I do like to see a nice bit of C19th European. Spot on Hanoverians.
Absolutely splendid stuff. :)

Yes it´s the Brunswickers, they came in as reinforcement in the end of the german turn, so they got hit pretty hard immediately in the danish turn the poor Brunswigers :o. When I look at the pictures I posted, I notice that picture 2 should be first. So in Picture 1 You can see the results of the danish dragoons attack

Flodin,
The Saxons are always my favourites, and you have painted them superbly. My next comment will provoke howls of mirth from the forum, and feelings of deja vue! ;D. Unsurprisingly it relates to flags! The white flag displayed on your second regiment is a Leibfahne of the model introduced into the first battalions of the new 3 Battalion Regiments in 1867-68. In 1848 all of the Saxon Battalions would have carried green flags of the type shown in your first photograph. There, my task here Is done. :-[

PS. The Danes look fabulous as well!
Gaaaaaaaaaah! Nooooo! Not again! ;) :P
Very nice indeed

Flodin,
The Saxons are always my favourites, and you have painted them superbly. My next comment will provoke howls of mirth from the forum, and feelings of deja vue! ;D. Unsurprisingly it relates to flags! The white flag displayed on your second regiment is a Leibfahne of the model introduced into the first battalions of the new 3 Battalion Regiments in 1867-68. In 1848 all of the Saxon Battalions would have carried green flags of the type shown in your first photograph. There, my task here Is done. :-[

PS. The Danes look fabulous as well!
Thanks :)
You are absolutely right, the flags are from Pendrakens 1866/1870 Saxon flag set, So they are from the wrong time :(
I still chose to use them ( because they looked so good ) , and I suppose that the first battallion in each regiment had somesort of Leibfahne. For what I know, the saxon infantry were organized in regiments during the first Schleswig-Holstein war. And the 1st batallion in saxon regiments had white Leibfahnen during the Napoleonic and SYW wars, so I guess they continued with that tradition :-\

Hi Mike,
All entirely logical deductions, but unfortunately logic did not enter into it. The only Leibfahne in this period was the 1815 Leibgrenadieregarde Fahne, which was retired in 1848 when the Garde Division was disbanded. It was re-issued as the Leibfahne of the Leibgrenadier Regiment in 1867-68. All the other battalions carried the green flags included in the Pendraken sheet.
The flags get swapped backwards and forwards between units as the army is re-organised. As far as I can see, in 1848 the Lebiregiment has green flags with the crown in the corner, and the regiments I, iI, and III, each had the Appropriate Roman Numerals in the corner. All these flags are on the Pendraken sheet. Hope this helps.
Best

Many thanks for the clarification :) wish I had known it before :'(.
can you recommend someone literature on the subject ?
I have begun to paint bavarians, for the period ( 1848-1851 ). And I bought Pendraken´s bavarian flag set PNFL74, are they adequate for the period ? If not, do you have any suggestions ?
Cheers Mike
Hi Flodin! All the green flags on the Saxon sheet are usable for 1848. The Bavarian flagsheet you have is entirely appropriate, as the vast majority of the flags are Model 1848. Technically only the two uniqu flags at the top, and the models with the monogram "M" are entirely accurate, but in this scale I cannot tell the difference between those with "M" and those with "L"! These flag sheets were all produced by forum member Maciek, on the basis of research that I provided him. I am afraid there is very little widely available to wargamers on this subject. My main sources for the Saxons are Hottenroth on the Saxon Flags produced a hundred years ago, and on the Bavarians, Fiebig, written in the 1930s. Good luck, and keep producing those beautiful figures.

Literature. Try The Armies of the First Schleswig-Holstein War 1848-51, by Ralph Weaver, published by Partizan Press and available form Caliver Books (who are also Partizan Press). Uniform details accompanied by b/w and colour plates and a brief description of the campaigns and army organisation.

Many Thanks Mollinary, for the information.

Flodin,
You are more than welcome. Of course, when I said all the Bavarian flags were Model 1848, it was a slip of the keypad for Model 1841! :-[
Still usable, though.

Lovely figures Flodin, keep it up.
