Swedish Line Infantry - Västerbottens Regiment

Another unit of line infantry painted for the Swedish. This is my fifth battalion for this army, only another to go and I'll call their line infantry done (then there will be the guard and grenadiers left to do!).

  3. Really beautiful. But, why Swedish Napolenic troops?

    1. Because they saw action during the Napoleonic wars? 1807, 1808-09, 1813-1814. They fought the French, Russians, and Danes. The descendant of a French Marshal still holds the throne of Sweden 200 years later... unlike all the many other Kings placed on the throne by Napoleon, none of whom was still in power by 1816.
