Nubian archers for the lazy

Does anybody know of a manufacturer who produces nubian/west african archers (or could be painted as such) that are stark, bollock naked?
I'm just getting lazy in my old age and I quite like the idea of an army I can largely spray paint with the odd artistic touch-ups here and there...

What about a Cataphract army? Spray paint black, dry brush silver&Bronze, highlight plumes and clokes.

I have a Nubian army built from various manufacturers and I couldn't find a completely nude figure for them. Historical depictions always have them wearing a kilt/loincloth at least sometimes w/ feathers and some sort of headwear. Even the most naked of them all, the Libyans, wore a sleeve over their genitals. So I think you're out of luck. Museum do Nudes w/ bows though -

Why wait until Empire of the Dragon? You can do it now with Immortal Fire. Just say you're modeling your Immortals off that show from the History Channel... what was it called... oh - 300!
