Sarmatian and Fantasy Arabs test paintings

In between my 'mass' painting sessions I've done a few test pieces...

 
Firstly, Sarmatian cavalry on armoured horse. They are supposed to mostly have horn armour so I thought I'd try doing one with it... Iraqi sand base, cavalry brown wash then lightly drybrushed with ivory. Seems to have worked OK. Takes longer though.

Cast a few of the fantasy Arabs... crude figures but look fine at a distance.

It will be a while before I really get round to doing anything with them though.  I still need infantry, officers and standard bearers.

    1. I just like making things and setting them up... the Arabs might take a time to get going though, too many other things...
