Help painting Seljuk turks

Post by JCgoose »

Hey

I've finally got round to painting up my turks but got stuck on colours. From what I can find they used a wide range so can I just roll with a mix of blue, red and yellow for tunics?
If I ever get unsure of my plan I just think to myself...DENNY CRANE!

Contemporary ceramics depictions of warriors show a great deal of blues and greens of the teal and aqua varieties. A favorite in their architecture as well.
