How about this as the symbol on the flag? And colours, of course.

Interesting, where is that from?

It's the Carlsberg beer logo

There is a German movie, Alt-Heidelberg, about the romance between the fictitious prince of Sachsen-Karlsburg (slightly different spelling) and a young lady from Heidelberg.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alt_Heidelberg_(1959)
The movie poster shows a coat of arms but it more likely the one of the Burschenschaft, in which the prince is a member.

Still, it might give you am idea.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Ahh of course, I will use the Carlsburg logo but in blue and yellow and may look at adding that alt hiedlberg logo in the centre.

Hi guys

I have a pretty large stash, enough to do projects in most eras/genres in at least 3 scales, in Napoleonics I have beautiful 18mm ABs and just as nice 28mm Perry's, but I keep getting drawn back to 1/72 plastics,not because the available figures are great, though some are, but because of the potential to make them look really nice, and their ease of conversion and cost. My usual 1/72 projects are WWII based, but I thought I would starts some 1/72 Nap projects, I'm a modeller not a gamer, so small skirmish type forces are perfect for this and will be organised around Sharpe practice forces, I'm starting with Wurttemberg, I have painted several armies for customers, but never one for myself and I had these infantry in my stash already, I've ordered artillery and cavalry to round out this force, after Wurts I will do Bavaria. Might try and improve the swords, can you see anywhere else I need to do work on?

Looking forward to some new painted minis!

Excellent work, like the Spanish artillery crews.

Hi guys

Doing some work on the Wurttemberg army commanders base, used an Italeri ACW cav figure as the base of the commanders conversion, still need to do some work on the gun.

Not sure how I will base the infantry, I was going to go with my usual single fig on a round base, but I considering either 4 figs on 25mm square, or 2 figs on a 20mm square, received the Artillery and Cavalry boxes in the mail the other day, so will be doing those soon.

Darn!

That's a ton of conversions.

Looking forward to see them painted.
