I ordered these Warfare Miniature Ottoman Commanders a few months ago as soon as they were released. But kept them to paint up during the Challenge. I could have been sneaky and used them as part of my final Challenge, to paint up another 2 units, one for either side of the for the attack on Vienna in 1683. But alas no, I'd already nearly finished these when given the Challenge.
Welcome to the Painting Challenge. Here you will find the fabulous, fevered work of miniature painters from around the world. While participants come from every ethnicity, gender, age and nationality, they have three things in common: they love miniatures, they enjoy a supportive community, and they want to set themselves against the Challenge. This site features the current year's event along with the archives of past Painting Challenges. Enjoy your visit and remember to come back soon.

From RayR - Donnybrook - Ottoman Commanders 1683 (50 points)
I gotta say I'm really pleased with how they painted up.
The sculpting is superb and so are the poses, which helps make them really easy to paint up.
The flags are also from Warfare miniatures.
All of the figures aren't for a particular unit, but can be used as command for any of the units I already have, or will paint in the future. And they will of course be added to my Donnybrook Ottoman force that I painted up during the last Challenge.
There are 10 x 25mm figures each worth 5pts.
So that's 50pts please Greg.

I should have known there would be more than one submission from you Ray! Fantastic work on this project Ray, great to see it continuing to move along. Well done.

I have to say that the way you work with the facial hair on these models really makes them stand out. I always notice how well done it is.
