This weeks painting : 28 mm Arabs

The news in the UK is somewhat depressing currently, I wonder if amongst the many conflicts which have occurred across Europe we can find a similar situation to the current political crisis ?

Anyway as I have wept in my red wine 🍷 I have finished off these Arabs.
A very simple paint job, but is works when they are a whole unit, just for a change I gave them a more consistent colour scheme for the shields, as the last unit I am happy with some, others less so. They are Gripping Beast figures I think bought as a very cheep lot at a show, I like these figures more so than the Black Tree Arabs partly because they have the shields attached. One more full unit of Arabs to completeπŸ™‚

    Clever shield work. News on the homefront (UK) is dire, also thoughts with our friends in California.

    Nice work on those! Yes, I'm in Britain for a few weeks to deal with family matters and the news isn't too brilliant.
