Very nice, mate. The GNW figures seem to fit the French "look" well. Finding detail on the French cavalry musicians is more than a chore, even Kronoskaf isn't much help at times. Do you have a good source or, like me, are you making "best guesstimate"?
If "The System" is the answer, who asked such a bloody stupid question?

My mate Jase has a great set of books on the French Army of the WSS that fills a lot of gaps wrt family livery (on the assumption that the basic livery colours remained the same). I'll ask him for the title. The only hard rule was that only the King's regiments (Maison du Roi and 'Royal' regiments) could have blue (i.e. Royal) livery.

I aspire to historically accurate but, alas, often fall short.

Any additional information is welcomed.
