Anyone able to help?

Thanks

That's it, basically.

Thanks, looking at the pictures (Thanks for linking), I can see no difference in the Sudanese and Egyptian marching figures e.g the 3rd figure from the left in both pictures,

I own a batch of both and just starting off the painting.

I must be missing something?

Thanks

Andrew

Must have been something else. Oh well, sorry for leading you up the garden path.
