thank you for your comments guys! I hope I can do them justice
Which main colour are you going to use for them?
I am thinking to paint them using an off-white khaki for the trousers and sleeves and a dark green for the jacket. The bows, belts and quivers will be in bestial brown and the turbans in space wolves grey highlighted with white.
I should have a test - stand completed by today so I can show to you ...
On a side note does anyone have any good reference pictures of araby (i.e. painted armies like sigur's on warseer) ?
I should also mention that my old opponent Athens_Fantasy will be starting work on his Dark Elves as soon as he goes back to London so hopefully we shall see some of his work as well
