British Victorian Army drummers lace/badges.

    Hi everyone. Wondering if anyone can provide or point me in the direction of info regarding drummers lace/badges for a British Victorian Army drummer circa 1885. I’m just in the process of painting Micks Micks Dublin Fusilier drummer boy. He has a drum badge on the right sleeve and I’m trying to find pictures of the sleeve badge to confirm if it is metal, material ( if so, coloured or plain white) and also to confirm if the fringes on the shoulder wings were just white or a mix of white and red. I believe the crowns on the lace are red (not blue of Royal Livery as in the Guards).
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Hi Neal.
    The Crowns on the Drummers lace were red including the wings, the fringe was red & white in sections. As for the drummers badge it was woven in white's & grays.
    The below pic might help.
