[Jesus]

Hello everyone. My new project, samurais. They are unfinished. What do you think? I accept ideas for a better finish.

They look really good. The striped weapons are very effective.

With my Samurai I painted one or two pieces of armour a contrasting colour, as this seems to be common in pictures.

The yellow armour is very striking, but I've not seen it elsewhere, do you have a source for it? If not I'd suggest using it for a few samurai but not on Ashigaru

Very good - worthy of the Pendraken Painting Competition

Very nice work and they should look superb once based in units .

The evidence is beyond dispute for glossy black, glossy red, gilt, and rust-brown armour. Samurai breastplates could be fabric-covered, but this was not the norm. Otherwise, in earlier armies - and you don't get to use ashigaru in jingasa then - armour makes so much use of coloured cords that anything goes, but always in horizontal bands.

Superb

Those look great, will they be based in time for the Painting Comp?!

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Excellent stuff

[Jesus]

Hi, thanks for the tips. It is difficult to find real information. Gold or yellow, don't they look alike? Do we take them for good or not? I still have many to paint.
Hi Leon, I just found out about the contest and I'm already speeding up to be on time, let's see if you like it.
