Very nice work cheng. I like how their headbands are all slightly wonky but never the same.

Hi

Now there is a rowdy bunch you do not want to tick off. I too like the weapons details with paint. These really do look Asian even with out the heads. We had a member (tim) who would remind us all that those eyes were just a stereo type and customs were more realistic with round eyes.

Thanks for sharing your customs

Great customs, cheng, and they look just perfect.  The detail in painting and the positioning of headbands and figures is superb.  The man on the cart does really look like the leader in his stance and facial expression.

thanks everyone!!  ;D

it means 'gift' (taunting the 'foreign devils'?), Wolf Knight! (will Heronimus help us out here?)    8-)

and Gordon, in movies, the guy with the grey hair would usually be the leader  ;)

and WOT, my customs morph now and then (when I steal parts for new themes or get inspirations for more accuraccy)...they dont look like this today...but not necessarily any better  :P

Looking good!

Did you get all the bodies through DS or sets?

Maybe when they have some samurai, some sets of Chushingura can be custom made.

Great customs Cheng.   :wow:
As one who doesn't know about such things, do the different coloured headbands show rank?

hello Elaine  :wave:
not that I know of...more often than not, they will wear same colors for easy identification so its risky to 'mix n match'  ;D
in this case, they have no problem identifying the foreigners  ;)

..Maybe when they have some samurai, some sets of Chushingura can be custom made.
mostly from my knight sets(yes, I bought a lot in those days :P)
and a Hayano Kanpei here and there...maybe all of them  :love:

Gordon,
oh that guy is 'Richard' :lol:

thanks Justindo!  :)

Gordon,
oh that guy is 'Richard' :lol:

bad joke not gone worse I hope?  :P
I meant the grey hair guy Gordon was referring to.....
(I didnt mean Richard is 'Hayano Kanpei'...I think I should leave an errata..Richard mightn't noitice  :lol: I'm only making it more confusing  :D
