Swedish Regt Vasterbottens

I am getting close to the home straight with the Swedish Corps of the 1813 Army of the North.  Current activity is painting 50 infantry which I am doing in four batch.  The Vasterbottens are the first batch.  After the infantry there is the Guard to complete.

The uniform is fairly generic, but the flag is identified as belonging to this regiment in 1802.  I could be mean and say it looks like something the Colonel's mother knitted him for Christmas.

The other thing to spot is the repaired bayonets on two figures. The flag pole was also replaced as the original was very bendy.
