Josh Barton Seconded with Russell, but red and blue halves would have probably been adopted by Simnel (or De La Pole) as well. I would get the osprey book (https://ospreypublishing.com/the-wars-of-the-roses-1455...) it'll probably have what you need.
It also seems like some enthusiastic person has created a database of livery colours which mich help: https://blog.vexillia.me.uk/.../war-of-roses-livery...
Gerard Lelieveld cheers, yes interested in de la poles army at stoke field. this is a ysefull resource too I found. http://www.citadelsix.co.uk/Yorkist%20Livery%20Badges.html
Andrew Jarman Vincent Cholewa no idea not researched past Bosworth.
John Garvey It is unlikely that the Pretender had any actual retainers to have a livery. Instead, like people above have said, you use the liveries of the supporting nobles. All the mercenaries would be in their normal clothes, with perhaps an identification mark such as a coloured sash or the like.
Gerard Lelieveld John Garvey sounds a bout right. De la pole is only one seems to have livery I can find. Landsknechts appear to be licorice all sorts. Kearns though? I assume more natural cloth colours
Josh Barton Gerard Lelieveld yellow was traditional for Kerns :)
