Yes. I also have some old metals & I think the HaT Nap. Austrian Landwehr might be useful too.

The Italeri Prussian Cuirassiers, with a little work, make OK dragoons?

I've already done some conversions for generals & ADCs. After a bit of research, I decided Bernadotte - even though Crown Prince of Sweden - could still wear his French marshal's uniform, albeit with Swedish decorations & sash.

Any other ideas?

Re: Napoleonic Swedes

There's this one:

The books in this series are pretty cheap and one of the guys at Benno's seemed to be quite pleased with some of the titles. Not sure if this is an E-Book, paper book or both.

Re: Napoleonic Swedes

No books, but some possible hits of 1808-09 war and also some more wider scope of swedish uniforms

Re: Napoleonic Swedes

Yes, the Rawkins book looks like it will suit admirably.
