Essos forces are a lot harder to conceptualise... Dothraki, unsullied, free cities, slave soldiers, the golden company.... I'm looking for inspiration on these as well

Here you go then...  ;)

Fresh from the Lead Painters League... I originally conceived these as some kind of Balkan mercenaries for Wars of the Roses era, but then realised they would double up rather well as Lyseni or Braavosi sellswrods for my Game of Thrones side project. So I am posting them in both relevant long running threads!
I've got a few more of these half made up... More progress in due course, once the LPL is wrapped up  :)

The bodies are Perry WOTR figures, with slightly adapted Perry heads from the ACW zouave and Sudanese ansar boxes. The shields are metal Foundry shields from the Eldorado Adventurers (big shields) and Pathan ranges (bucklers). The fur capes are added from Green Stuff.

I'm glad to see these. I recently bought that Zoauve sprue and was thinking the heads looked a ::smidge:: small, but in your pictures there's no noticeable difference. Also, you know, a reason to trawl through the thread again. ::)

[On second viewing, I realized I was not in the Perry men-at-arms thread as I thought]

It's nothing, sir. Just a burn from a ray gun.

Wow. They're incredible. Painting is spot-on, but the conversions are what really make them for me.
