Romark, you would be surprised. You just have to do a search for Indian Suddhus on the net and you'll get a full panalopy of useful results. :)

Oh I'll have me a unit of them....

I've just finished painting some of their rocket men and a leader type for my 18thC India stuff.

Emir I see them as a small commando style unit ready to pop up anywhere to give the enemy a shock lol.

Brilliantly done Jeff- amazing work to get the look of the ashes spread over the skin!!!

Outstanding!!  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

Darrell.

Nice work on those Jeff,colour scheme looks great,don't expect there was a lot of reference work available for that  :)
As an aside,I wonder if these guys were the inspiration for Lardy Rich's "natives with big choppers" for his Fondler scenarios  :)

Thanks chaps, Romark I think these were made for the " big choppers" tag.

Nifty. I could use a few dozen of those in my Mogul armies. Anyone make 'em in 10mm?

FK, I've never seen these figures in any other scale I'm afraid. There may be something similar in Ancient Indian ranges but that's just me guessing.

You've made me wonder what other kind of  sites Jeff may have visited for his "research"  ;)

Strangely enough, as the lucky owner/commissioner, that's exactly how I plan to use them in future scenarios - the mercenary bodyguard of the Kharzi of Kalabar:

In 'Sharp Practice' terms, they'll be aggressive natives with big choppers, with the added twist that they can never be broken and routed through accumulated Shock (though fisticuffs modifiers due to Shock will still apply) - they will fight to the death or until the Shock renders them unable to fight through the deduction of dice.
