Anyone know of any photos of painted Peleset minis, preferably Old Glory?

There seems to be an extra piece of cloth hanging down from one side of the front of the kilt, and I'm wondering how to paint it.
I'm guessing that it part of the same piece of cloth as the kilt

Foundry website has photos of their minis.

That thing is just decorative thingy, paint it any color you want. I painted OG Peleset before.

I agree that the Foundry site is great for painting ideas, go check it out.

Yadin's "Art of War in Biblical Lands" has a few plates of Sea Peoples in action, from the Rameses propaganda paintings. The first Osprey? grin "Armies of the Scum that I Have Vanquished and Smote"

They are attired in tasteful pink and sky blue pastel squares on their kilts, with white boundaries.

I don't feel like going to the garage again.

Isn't that just where the kilt wraps around, and the fringe extends up to the waist from the hemline?

Seems to be interpreted as a decorative tassle in some cases, but when I first opened the Caesar 1/72 figures, my first impression was that their knicker elastic had snapped, and their underpants were sliding down one leg…

Foundry site has them withdrawn from the web

It looks nice done white along with hem. This is a good contrast with any colours for rest of kilt. As said it can be any colour.

If you have access to the WAB Ancient Battles Rule Book there are some good colour shots of Foundry Peleset infantry in evocative terrain that may be helpful.

There are some very nice new photos on Miniature Designs. miniaturedesignstudio.co.uk
