They look marvellous Simon.
Good basing effect too. Are the bigger tufts by GAMERS GRASS?
Are you pleased with them?

Figures are lovely. Tufts are Tajima (Ebay)

@martin goddard you had said there were a couple more Nubian packs coming. These figures are very suitable for the later partly-Egyptianised Kings of Kush. You can see them on the Assyrian reliefs

You could use the existing Egyptian chariots (painted in Nubian flesh tones). The range would need a spearman and cavalry figures.

I will look into those tufts thanks  Simon.

The figures are about done already.
They might be a bit delayed as I am in hospital next week for a day, with some after effect.

Hope you enjoy a speedy recovery, Martin.
Those Nubians/Kushites of yours are fabulous sculpts. They'd make excellent Hyborian Cushites as well as their historical equivalents. SimonC - you've done a wonderful job on those!
