Very nice indeed.
I had asked Mark of Crusader to do some Swedish infantry some time ago (as I'm not a great fan of the Swedes from Front Rank) but I think that plan has died as he is going to do some R&F French, Brits and Russians instead. Still he might get round to it.
I then planned, as you have done, to use Russian dragoons for Swedish cavalry. The uniform is a good fit (sic).
But I had no information on whether senior officers wore a sash (nobody seems to know for sure but perhaps you have better info?) |

not as far as I can work out, the sash on these blokes is very understated so essentially I painted it out.. |

a good fit but a few things like the moustaches and cockades I just had to live with |
