Really like the dusty appearance and the way you did the shields. I'll copy your style for my 1/72 camel Arabs.

As a DBA/historical accuracy question, how "early" can Tuareg models be used as desert nomads? I have always loved the look of the Tuaregs but play earlier time periods. Any advice or guidance is appreciated.

Nice! Did you dip or wash them in something? Mark H.

Hi, Thanks for the compliments everyone. To answer your question Mark, a light dry brush with a very light tan followed by a very watered down wash in black. The camels themselves were initially 'wet mixed' with a variety of horse tones from coat d'arms, by which I mean a coat of one paint and before it is completely dry another applied, slightly watered down, on top of it. I also varied the order on each group of 3-4 camels to get a slightly different colour on each one.
