Here is the third BG, LF bows.
These guys were a test run for the upcoming 'abid al-shira units.

Overall view of the so far finished units with the announced grass on the bases. My girlfriend added some markings on the horses which made them really better.

Very good painting job, as usual. Your girlfriend (or you? :P ) is very lucky. If you admit a small tip, check HereWeGo tutorial on basing. I think that those bases, with some more "colour" will be great.

Thanks. Regarding the bases, it was proposed before, but she likes them as they are. I had a test base painted with some random areas highlighted some more, but she didn't like it.

The deal is good sex for nice miniatures. ;)
I've been married 24 years. She still doesn't like my miniatures :(
Word has it that women aren't after size per se, but 'miniature' is probably just too small for anyone to like. Sorry Phil, but I do get a fair number of e-mails about this, I'll forward them onto you...
