Ayyubid Egyptian force

 

After I painted the last unit I thought it was high time to do some army pictures as I always finds the sum of all the parts are better then the individual units by them self.

This is the units I painted for my Ayyubid Egyptians somewhat in reason time and I wanted to group them all together for this photo shoot before I pack them down with the rest of my collection.
This is nowhere near my full collection, it should be massive by now.
I should really take the time to take some photos of the entire collection together at some time.

More of my Saracens can be found under that label here on the blog.

All of this units can be found here on the blog under a separate post.

But without further ado lets start looking at those pictures.
You can click on them to get a larger one then seen as a preview.

Ghazi fanatics for my Ayyubid force

 

I finished a small unit of Ghazi fanatics for my Ayyubid Egyptian force.

The models are from all over the place. And I cant even remember them all. Some are even kitbashed together from different plastic manufactures, including Firefore mongols, Warlord Games Celts, Fireforge Arabs.

Paintingwise I wanted to have lots of bits of green in the unit.
As this is a "poor" rank n file unit that I painted more for the effect of the sum of the unit rather then the individual models in it I skipped some highlight steps and such.

But Im happy with the end result even if I didnt paint them all to the highest standard.

Saracen Medium Spearmen

 

I just finished another unit of medium spearmen for my Saracen collection.

The miniatures are a mixture of Perry metals and Gripping Beast metal and plastics.
The banner is just printed paper that I painted the edges and some areas on the banner (to make it better blend in with the paint of the miniatures).
