Title: samurai apes
Post by: Maenoferren on 18 June 2011, 02:30:31 PM
Right ho chaps, sat here overlooking the sea, unable to walk about due to groinal injuries :(. I started thinking about my Samurai apes and how I would paint them. So here is the request. If you have a samurai apes army painted up please post a pic or a link to your army. This will give us an inspiration section of an individual army type :) which I can nick ideas from ;)

Cheers Arsenus, I do like the blue troops with the commander in red. Looks like blue might be an option :)
I was thinking Ran the different elements, fire, water, and some others that I cant remember :D

There is the water, the fire and the wind.

I thought the four elements were Earth, Wind, Fire and Water ?
Or am I missing something ?
Have a speedy recovery !

Interesting stuff Arsenus.
I'm sure I was reading recently that somewhere in the 'ancient' world there was yet another (different) four element 'belief', that wasn't Earth, Wind, Fire and Water....Who and when this was I cannot remember though.....Never mind...I'll find it again one day.
Cheers - Phil.

Beat me to the button!  :'(

I was just typing that the five Japanese elements are Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and Void (or Sky/Heaven).
