They are relatively heavy cavalry with a small chance of getting bows.

Hello again all! I'm looking for a bit of help and inspiration.
For now some pics from the brf's; I've not been able to do as much as I wanted this last month and am a bit bogged down with a massive amount of horses.
Eati - Bolgris - Bolgris- Eati. 
Help wise I'd like a big kite shield with rounded top corners, but I'll probably manage to make that myself later.
The inspiration is a bit tricker; I'm wondering if anyone has any good pictures of mail shirts and hauberks, preferably reasonably realistic. Especially drawings and other art based on medieval middle-eastern period would be great!

Combine them and your character will be four times cooler!AWdeV 说:OOOoh nice. The first guy has a cool weapon, the second guy a cool hat, the third guy cool sleeves and the fourth an awesome shield.
Seriously, nice models and stuff!
About the images of mail shirts: guess you know the Osprey books? They have some nice images of medieval armors, including arabic and middle-eastern mail. If you don't know/have them, i could post some scans...

Thanks for the reactions!
Rule, Yes, I have a bunch of Ospreys but quite a few of them aren't of this area/period. Stuff like pre-1000 Germanic Warriors or Byzantines from 12something-1500 aren't fantastically relevant. I do have three about the period and area but can never have too much images.

Five days later; still nothing new. I despair of myself, I'm still busy with the same thing I was busy with two weeks ago. So, some .brf pics;
The small shields and the coats of mail will probably be used only by the Eati, the larger shields will be Bolgris only. I intend to make a first version with three of the major factions mentioned earlier in the thread.
Very nice, especially the 4 first shields

Yeah, perspective mainly, I held them slightly sideways when I took the picture. I didn't even really notice but it does make the bosses (the metal bits) look as if they're not properly placed, but they are. Maybe I can make it a little bit darker around the boss, though, it looks a bit dull at the moment. The plain ones, mainly.

Does the chainmail have mipmaps? Other than that, looking sweet.

I'm not sure, I'm not very well versed in that; I can change textures fine enough and even implement them but I need to work on what everything I do means.
My dxtbmp is always set to
though, so I assume that it has mipmaps.
