Sure...we might have an early release before Christmas perhaps....
I'm currently working on minor (emergent) factions and finalising existing units mostly during the weekends.

I'll rummage around and see what images I can find..

Thanks Prince and agunter999. It'd be great if there are some more info on Romanian and Norwegian infantry between 1790 - 1820. Can exercise more freedom with references seeing how Romania and Norway are fictitious Napoleonic state.
I've already gathered some info but more will help me reach a balanced decision.

Every little bits helps , thanks
This would be challenging: Norway 'rebelled' and fought a short war with Sweden in Swedish-Norwegian War (1814)
Just wondering if anyone has some good references for Norway's uniform in that war. For example, what uniform would Johannes Klingenberg Sejersted or any Norwegian commanders wear? I assume the ragtag Norwegians 'rebels' would have a mix of Dannish and Swedish uniforms. But my access to reliable sources are limited. Please keep me posted

Well done
Norway: will add to this if I find anymore uniform plates of use.
Norwegian Army in 1814 comprised musketeers, skirmishers (light infantry), sharpshooters, ski-troops, dragoons & gunners. Grenadiers were disbanded in 1810 .
Musketeers tended to wear short red jackets with trim in regimental colour. Trousers were either blue, white or grey. They wore either the French style shako or the former 1794 hat.
Light infantry had either grey uniforms with green lapels or green with black lapels depending on whether they had new or old uniforms.
Ski troops in summer wore Swedish uniforms - blue & yellow, but in 1814 it is possible that they had green or the new grey of the jaergerkorpset.
Dragoons & artillerymen had crimson coloured uniforms. Dragoons & mounted gunners had pull on trousers with leather reinforcement.
For the nationally minded Norwegians - grey or green were the national colours before the final severance with Denmark in 1814. Christian Frederik in 1814 had new uniforms produced for himself & staff - grey with blue lapels & trim.
The above is taken from "The NorwegianAarmy at the beginning of the 19th century" by Terje H. Holm (Swedish Armee Museum Book "Between the Imperial eagles Sweden's Armed forces during the Revolutionary and the Napoleonic Wars 1780--1820"). He was a Senior Lecturer at the Armed Forces Museum in Oslo. He is also co-writer of a 5 volume work on Norwegian Military history, contributing to the section on 1570-1814.

For Romania - look at post 212 at http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...399343&page=11 (admittedly they are 1848 plus but should give you some ideas.
This links to postcards of uniforms circa 1870 http://postcardscollection.wordpress...tary-uniforms/

I see you are working hard; or is it more like hardly working at times when your working on your mods. rep+
