Kal-el's Unit Concept Sketches

[Dom Pedro II]

Well, I also might not be seeing it right... I mean, maybe if you post a pic of what you're basing it off of.

Here's one very um...interesting Zulu mask.

 

[LouLong]

Might be a bit late but here are some Egyptians
(ask me if you have any specific questions).

 

[Dom Pedro II]

Not to be bothersome Lou, but does your book offer any description of what each of these fellows are?

 

[LouLong]

My book, what book ? Can't you see I drawed all that with my own hand ?

OK

1 & 2 : basic Egyptian spear and bow (more like Ancient/middle Empire)
3 : Pharaoh in fighting "suit"
4 : Nubian archer
5 : Nubian signal-holder/bearer
6 : elite officer (linen armor)
7 :Signal-holder/bearer
8 : soldier wearing a crocodile-skin protection
9 : soldier using a "break blade" tool
10 : Sudanese auxiliary archer

 

[Dom Pedro II]

I dunno about anybody else, but I think incorporating that crocodile-skin armor is a must!


Thanks, LouLong.

I must know! Did Kinboat say he was to take on the Egyptian Flavor units! I don't wanna see such beautiful artwork not become a unit! As for the Legionarii Filuminata, whatever happened to it, Dom?

 

[Dom Pedro II]

*sigh* Working on it... but I have three Japanese units to complete first before I can really dive in to the Roman unit. I just got a new job, which is a lot of back-breaking work, so a good 8 hours of the day is gone there, and when I get home, I usually just pass out. Plus the holiday doesn't help either.

All I can say is that it's still in the works, and hopefully another week maybe.

 

[Amenhotep7]

That's good news! Good luck.

 

[LouLong]

@Amenhotep7 : you know even if Kinboat accepts he still has not finished the North American Indians yet + he kind of let know he might do one or two more things on the side. Meaning : be glad, happy and thankful (aren't we all) when you get them, just don't "exepct" them

 

[Amenhotep7]

I'm not expecting them, but just wanted to know if he'll make them...I'm so compelled by these sketches, I even told myself that if Kinboat or utah doesn't make them, I will.

Nice.

 

[Dom Pedro II]

Personally, I do like this one much better...

Me too.

Two new Zulu drawings, the Horseman and Crossbowman.

 

[Dom Pedro II]

Awesome! Awesome! I love the Horseman...

 

[Dom Pedro II]

Woo hoo!!! I found it! It was buried in amongst my models...

[Dom Pedro II]

And now I cut his head off...

 

[Kinboat]

First off all those Zulu sketches look great... Two points... One the rider seems a little small in proportion to the horse/Quagga, not really important but maybe a note for whoever picks these up. Second I actually prefer the previous pikeman, looks more original now he's just like every other pikeman with a helmet... Before he was a great warrior with a mask Just my preference.
