Dogs of War

This thread is dedicated to my small, yet growing araby army.

War Elephant









Djinn

I love the models. I would love to see a unit of elephants either counts as Barded Heavy Cavalry or with thier own rules.

The Djinn reminds me of a Disney Movie.

Good to see this thread up and running again.

Are you going to make a Araby Army book to go with these models?

I think we had that planned after the Dogs of War army book? With a lot less nit-picking, I can assure you.

Less nit-picking?

So you aren't planning to be involved

I didn't say that. But I am getting a bit tired of you picking on my nit-picking. That ain't right!

New character. The wizard known as Jaffar.

Nice! You know, Reaper and BTD makes a good range of Arabic models. You might wanna check them out.

I like him. Which lore of magic will he be using?

@ M4cR1II3n
Neh, I want to make a all GW army. Who knows it might be worth it

@ BilboBaggins
Since it's the desert I guess he could use fire lore, but he is evil so any dark lore would do.

If it's a whole GW army you won't have problems playing in GW run tournaments.

Darker Magic. Well the Chaos Dwarfs which I refer to as Dark Dwarfs use Fire, Shadow, Metal and Death.

i like the ball on the staff looks great Sultan

Your models ROCK! Awesome paint job, great detail. Does the Arabic script on the elephant's saddle blanket actually translate into something? If I ever get back to Egypt or Jordan, I'll try to make it a point to get some authentic desert sand for flocking.

Probably says don't feed the animals.

If wikipedia doesn't lie and I didn't screw up painting it means Poland. I had no better idea than the name of my country, just a small personal detail.

Wikipedia lie, that doesn't happen.

It's cool that you personalized it that way.

I just think it would be funnier if it said follow with broom and shovel.

lol yes they do !!!

Looks awesome!

I like the ideas you use. Such simple, obvious models with different colour schemes really makes it stand out.

The army's coming along great! Good work.

I like the converted Men at Arms for the howdah riders? The GS's turbans are very well done.

i like that elephant - where is it from?

It's a chinese figure made from plaster or something similar. Someone bought it in a gift shop or "Everything for X ...(enter your curency here) store". You might want to look in toy stores or zoos for plastic ones.

BTW, soon I will finish my kossar unit and the "OMG what a huge beard!" boyar.
