Variags of Khan 2

Still not finished but, as the next stage is those punched out yellow stick discs, it may be some time. I can't find the punch.

I've given then blue waist belts rather than cream because of the better covering power of the darker colour. Also I gave their weapons wooden handles. The GW images seem to show metal ones which, if lugged around in the desert sun, would soon be to hot to handle.

I notice that the bases need an extra coat on the rims too and the banners more highlighting.

Nice models though I'd work on centralising their centres of gravity if I did some more. They can tip over easily. Another point - I think I'd spray the banners separately in white. Better and brighter coverage for the red.

I did the base painting and highlighting of these five before adding the tufts.

Khandish Warriors

These chaps await the final touch, a yellow disc on their banners.

My good friends John and Val came up with a neat idea for this - use a hole punch on some yellow sticky paper. (It's cheating, I know)

They are in the company of a Haradrim Warrior and a Half Troll to compare bases.

To give them a different look to either of the others I've used 'Mission Bay' sand painted with Deathclaw Brown highlighted with Yriel Yellow and the put on a few 'Wasteland Tufts'.
