Thanks for posting this, lovely pictures. Do you have more uniform pics from the Scanian War? Sure - Dalauppror and I have started a Skirmish based project focused on the local guerrilla militia "snabbhanar", that fought with the Danes. Also, I'm current painting a new batch of Warefare Miniatures as The Queen's Regiment. Will post the pics soon!

Thanks! Just ordered the Höglund book from Arcedia. So, your first book on uniforms was also Preben Kannik's:0) A true classic with excellent descriptions along with the colored plates.
