And a little puzzle to figure out...
Witch building I paint at the left side of the town buildings?
To the one who gives the right answer first will be given some rep

And to Wolpertinger Thanks for the nice words and my favorite hanoverian march is this one:

[Wolpertinger]

Very nice march

I would guess that house to the left is the "Leibnizhaus" in Hannover?

These totaled six battalions of infantry, eight squadrons of horse and three of dragoons in Netherlands pay and eight battaltions of infantry, six squadron of horse and eight of dragoons in English pay. The Hannoverian infantry were usually dressed in red with distinguishing regimental facing colours. Hat lace was gold or silver corresponding to yellow or white buttons. With the exception of the Leibgarde, who wore red, the Hannoverian horse wore white with regimental colour distinctions. By 1700 the skirts of the coat were turned back producing the turnbacks, which were later to be military fashion throughout Europe. The cavalry hat was white felt until 1705 when the black tricorn was adopted. Breeches and waistcoats for both horse and dragoons were of bright yellow leather. Boots were brown at first then black. Leib companies wore bearskin. The cuirass was abolished in 1683. In 1706 officers wore yellow sashes over the right shoulder. Finally the artillery in 1700 wore red coats with blue cuffs and yellow lace, buff breeches and blue stockings.

Thanks a lot This is really helpful
But I think the Garde Regiment would had dark blue lining and cuffs. (In Louis Sichards history of the hanoverian army the uniform of the Garde is always discribed with dark blue lining and cuffs and every picture I've seen from later periods give the Garde dark blue lining and cuffs)
And the artillery uniform switched colors in 1705 when the armys of Celle and Hannover were finally united.

Those brunswick units are amazing

[wangrin]

This was the description given in "The Armies and Uniforms of Marlborough's Wars" written by C.S Grant.

During the Seven Years' War, Hannoverian "Garde zu Fuß" wore a red uniform lined dark blue.
But description of the early XVIIIth century Hannoverian "Leibregiment zu Fuß" is plausible or can be a mistake from the author between dark blue and black.

Fußgarde (1679/3)
*1648 aus der Schlosswache in Hannover und Calenberg und dem „Leibregiment zu Fuß“ (Fsm. Calenberg (Hannover)), 1662 kam eine Kompanie aus Fbm. Osnabrück hinzu - seit 1690 Garde - Kommandeure: 1690 Hermann Phillipp von Ohr, 1693 Carl Christian von Sommerfeld, 1712 Cuno Josua von Bülow, 1733 Johann Georg von Ilten, 1749 Georg Friedrich von Sommerfeld, 1760 August Friedrich von Spörcken, 1776 Carl von Mecklenburg-Strelitz, 1786 Eduard von Kent und Strathearn, 1789 Adolph Friedrich von Cambridge - † 1803.

Quintus,

When I said the eyes looked freaky, it wasn't meant to be a negative feedback.
My wife is an artist and since I have been with her I had broaden my perception of various art forms. You have a clear style I fully appreciate. It is different, but, not in the least, bad. I would not change thing. The eyes are still freaky and wicked looking though

[Quintus Hortensius Hortalus]

Hey for me there is no negativ feedback just usefull feedback or not usefull
And was never offended and never felt that you though my work was bad so everything is all right and you clearly must not declare youself!

[wangrin]

Yes.
Drummer from La Motte regiment are said to have worn bright blue-green coat, carmine lining, waistcoat and breeches.

[SirEyeball]

Why is it that this is not included in the main mod? I mean Hanover is a playable faction and it sure looks like this is well made. I would think this would just save the main modders time as this faction gets done and they shouldn't think too much about doing Hanover then?

Edit it could also serve as an example so if other skilled modders would like their country included they would know that if done well enough they can do so themselves and skip the cue.
