The author of the reconstruction himself was not able to name the tribe to which this warrior belongs))) And on what archaeological or imaginative sources do you base your guess?
By the way, in your drawing has two warrior armor - chainmail, and on top of it - something like brigandina.

Bobrov and Khudyakov talk about two types of protective armor, common among the Khanty and Mansi. The first - chainmail, and with a characteristic feature only for these tribes - scalloped hem and sleeves. The second is a fairly common in Siberia hayag - a shell of metal plates fastened with rings.



Chainmail survived only in fragments, so I again cite only the iconic source of that period.

The clothes on the soldier represented by me are typical for Finno-Ugric tribes, it's not Tatar, not Kazakh. Remains, Voguls, Khanty and Mansi. Of these, Bobrov indicates only the Khanty, as the people whose mail was widespread. Voguls and Mansi in general in my opinion had a minimal protective kit.

Do you sell your figures individually or in sets? I don't mind sets if each pose is different but I don't like duplicates where you get 6 or more of the same poses in one set.

I usually sell small sets of figures (1-4 pieces), where all the poses are different. But you can buy any figure separately, and even a detail from it, if you turn to me with a letter. All of the above does not apply to just one set of figures that was cast in Britain and I can not myself cast the missing figures for him.

Not trying to rush things at all but when do you think some will be available? To me they look like they are at the beginning of the process meaning being sculpted and these are the greens you are showing us.If I'm wrong (and I usually am  :D) please explain.

I want to hope that the first figures will be ready for Christmas. But, as the Russian proverb says: "Man proposes, and God disposes"  :D

My friend, maybe as an option to make removable heads for your miniatures in different headgear? This would allow a variety in the army.
