Pretty sure my former university has anything you're looking for on Portuguese armies. FLUP is one of the biggest History universities of Portugal so...
What is this project for? Just to establish a site with accurate information on the SYW?

yes. we are compiling accurate information in the wiki format for the seven years war.

the best place to start would be with the regiments, and in particular their uniforms-we get those out of the way first.

The problem is that I'm studying in another university, across the country. The only time I go to my hometown, near Porto (Where FLUP is), its per 2 weeks and just on weekends. Thus, the only time I might help you guys is in Easter break.
