My current Project is the dress, equipment and arms of the Dutch-Belgian forces.
Mainly for the Waterloo campaign. But for this I searched the Dutch and Belgian archives for the period 1813 to 1820 and even later.
I hope to publish a series of books on the subject, starting with the Dutch Line Infantry Bataillons.
@Rob Wolters if you go that route, I’d certainly be interested. In your researches, did you pick up any short bios on officer’s or personalities? Geert van Uythoven had a web site some years back, but it seems to have sunk without a trace.
I'm not so into biographies and will not be including them in my book. Nevertheless discussions on uniform patterns, production etc. will reveil some personality-traits from the likes of Tindal and Janssens.
Have you spoken to @Andrew Bamford about whether Helion might be interested in publishing that? They have a great range of books on the period.
He has offered to publish, but I think I need more space than he can offer. I think I'll go with print on demand and be my own publisher.

I wish you would have researched also the Dutch in the French Revolution, especially the time when they fought against the French.
You mean 1793-1795? My main interest is the 19th Century. I also researched the Dutch Colonial Army.
