A great army and very colourful. Most people seem to forget that the Austrians spent a couple of centuries trying to keep the Turks at bay.

Very nice, back in the days when the Austrians and Hungarians were always at war with the Turks.

I have a Polish army that should be finished soon as well.

This to add to the Venetians, Turks and Persians already done. Then the Moghuls are in the painting queue...

Ah, yes, the Venetians. Shame there isn't a "sneaky b*****ds, totally unreliable" coating that you can paint on for added realism.  :d
