That technically makes these fellows late period Egyptians the last gasp of native rule before domination by foreign powers (Persians, Greeks Romans and so on until after World War II) Fortunately with Ancient Egyptians what's is new is what is old so reto garb was the way.
They were simple linen kilts and head dresses armed with bows arrows and maybe a knife. The leader has a stone headed mace. There are 10 figures here for 50 points. The base is a temporary one so Arofan can permanently base them as he wishes. This may require a reduction in points.
Sylvain: Very nice Egyptians. I'm enticed to walk like them (cf. Bangles). Their head dress immediately suggest where they are from. I'm not going to reduce the points because I'm sure these miniatures will soon end up on a nice base. Can't wait to see the next submission of this project of biblical proportions.
Thank you... there are more Egyptian Archers and Spearmen too planned for a future submission.

ReplyDeleteNice work Adam. Rather you than me painting all those head dresses.
ReplyDeleteNice work!
ReplyDeleteNice work Adam. You are all set to go biblical on someone.
ReplyDeleteLovely work.
ReplyDeleteAncient is such a pejorative word. How about Advanced Egyptians? Venerable Egyptians? Anyway, they look terrific Adam.
ReplyDeleteI mean technically they would be "Late Egyptians" but that sounds worse than Ancient.
DeleteSuper looking Advanced/Barrel-Aged/Tardy Egyptians Adam.
ReplyDeleteGreat figures Adam, the headresses are especially nice and have a real linen look!
ReplyDeleteExcellent Egyptians Adam. No matter they are called very nice.
