I'm not his mate  ;D I'm his personal slave  lol

I do remember seeing in a museum somewhere a print of an Indian painting showing some nobles and I'm sure one of them had lacquered red armour  ???

See, no excuse now  lol

Have always love those figures.
Excellent painting.
Thanks for sharing.

Gorgeous figures!

The only thing I might suggest for the next batch is to paint in some subtle patterns in the "silk" jackets and trousers in a slightly different shade of colour. For example, dots or small diamonds or rings.

Your suggestion is a smart one, my ability although is lacking.  :(

Just small designs of dots here and there in a lighter shade of the base colour might do the trick.
