Medieval Arabs completed - Abbasid / Seljuk / Arabian Nights

After just over 2 years painting I've finally completed my long-held dream of producing a medieval Arab army. It started life as a small force for use in Lion Rampant but has been expanded over the last year to a larger army for use in Armati and Kings of War.

I've painted lots of options so should be able to cover Abassid, Seljuk Turks, Fatamid, or Saladin's Saracens.  Most of the figures are Gripping Beast.

In Armati terms the total force comprises

• Heavy Cavalry x 5
• Light Cavalry x 7
• Dismounted Cavalry x 1
• Foot x 5
• Skirmishers x 3
• Light Infantry x 5 (3 bow and 2 javelins)

The light cavalry - mixture of Turcoman, Arabs, and Seljuk

For about the last 6 months I've also been looking at options to make this a Kings of War army themed along the Arabian nights by the addition of flying carpets, heroes, and an air elemental.

So now the next project is to paint a force of Crusaders to oppose them. I'm going for the first Crusade as this should give an army reusable as Normans or early medieval Europe.
