Second banner of elite cossack style cavalry

Second banner of elite cossack style cavalry for my Polish-Lithuanian army - and the last banner of this type of cavalry that I need and that am going to paint. All that remains for me to paint to get a complete Crown cavalry regiment is just one more banner of Pancerni (which are next in my painting cue). The elite cossacks will see action in the Lithuanian skirmish lists supporting Polish dragoons and reiters, but may from time to time make guest appearances in the Polish skirmish lists as well.

The flag itself is adorned with the Lithuanian coat of arms, the "chaser", so it's more than fitting for them to serve as part of a Lithuanian force.

As for the paintjob, I'm happier with the paintjob of the riders and horse on this banner compared to the last one, though the shields ended up a bit too dark for my liking.
