Excellent work!

I love your painting on the carpet.

The new carpet is a much better fit for the sorcerer and it doesn't seem too large to me (at least when looking at the picture).

I can't take full credit for the carpet. The Arabic calligraphy is a transfer. I cut to size a portion of an Islamic banner transfer made by Little Big Men Studios, and applied it to the surface of the carpet. Then I applied a coat of matte sealer over it. Finally, I applied paint and spot washing on the transfer itself and around its edges to to blend the transfer in to the rest of the carpet.

I agree.

Another good call and worth the effort Koyote.

New carpet looks great. You want some safety margins up there. They really should put some rails on there, or a harmess or something.

Agreed with everyone else - the new carpet looks about right

My SAGA Desert Nomad (Lords of the Wild) javelin levy are done. That's one fewer task on my Adepticon prep to-do list.

In addition to finishing off the last of my levy, I spent time this week experimenting with colors for my new magic carpet, painting the base for the new carpet, and prepping my Sphinx for paint.

I also took some time to update the bases of my 60+ Moor and Desert Nomad models to match the bases of my javelin levy. This entailed repainting the black decorative rocks a dark brown (highlighted with a lighter brown) and added tufts of Tiny Beige Gamer Grass (2mm). The mixture of dark and light tufts look much better than just the dark tufts alone.

Even with the embossed designs as a guide, painting the carpet was a pain in the @ss. It still needs another layer or two of highlights, but I've done enough work on it for now. It's time I try my hand at painting a sphinx.
