Hi Ralf, nice figures and mindful paintwork!
However my knowledge about the subject is small - not considering the novel "Shogun" of James Clavell, that I read ;D - the colors seem to be quite authentic!
Anyway I like them - thank you for showing!

-

Samurai are a really interesting thing.

Hi Shogun Here are some more books on Samurai. First is the Samurai in Color Phots by Crowood publishing . Next and I think the best are printed in Japan with English sub titles . History of Japanese Armor from the YaYoi period to the Muromachi period 12-14 century . Second The Waring Period to the Edo period. 14th to 19th century . Both books are by Ritta Nakanishi , Also check out Osprey and Mr S.R. Tunbull Willie

Hi Willie, I get any books by Mr Turnbull. A good start for absolut beginners in this theme maybe "Secrets Of The Samurai" by Oscar Ratti/Adele Westbrook. By the way my very first was Samurai Warriors by Turnbull.
