Completed the 2 units of Nubians I needed for my New Kingdom Egyptian army

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!

Lovely paint job on those Simon.
