A lot of painting plus rebasing to get a better army organised to face the French in Egypt. It's a mix of various Strelets Mameluke and Bashi-Bazouk sets to create a consistent force to oppose my French in Egypt or Syria.
Cavalry, the skirmishers are rebased Bashi-Bazouks plus a couple of Mamelukes based so they can be either open or close order
More cavalry, the back ranks are all Bashi-Bazouks that fit in well with the Mamelukes
The infantry, all Strelets Bashi-Bazouks on foot. Not quite a complete set as I've kept some to create a skirmish unit
As before, poor light and new camera have affected the picture quality.
Archduke Piccolo, I hope you like the Bashis

Nice work
Very colorful and banlanced composition! I hope to see them in the wargame table...
Very nice armies, the bases are great! I recognized a Napoleonic Mameluk by Hät among them :)
Philotep, well spotted, I added a spare just to make up the numbers
Fantastic ! to be honest, after browsing on your website i think i will copy some (many ?) of your ideas ! I'm planning to depict the french army in Egypt, and those bachis seems to fit perfectly with the real mameluks !
