Thank you Les1964. CarlL
Haardrada, lovely Ghaznavids. I love an elephant or three! Lovely mix of figures, that look really good. CarlL
Paulisper, fantastic close up of the lovely shading on your Ayyubid infantry, and the shields and banners look great throughout. CarlL

Haardrada,
interesting Angkor Wat resin models, look forward to seeing your camps...
I have an unpainted 15mm Cambodian army, not sure my 'troops' would appreciate a desecrated Angkor Wat camp!? But lovely resin model. CarlL

Currently working on a Hindu Indian 28mm / 25mm DBA army, got as far as cleaning castings, doing some swops of mount and priming the cavalry; while adding some quilted 28mm foot archers to my West Sudanese, and got as far as base colour over priming. Slow progress. CarlL

Today I finished my Lusignan Cypriots. How so fast? You ask! Well I ripped off all the research from Wargrunt: wargrunt.blogspot.com/2021/01/lusignan-cypriot-army-dba-iv26.html?m=1Then I copied his selection of minis, conversions, colour schemes and pretty much everything else. Sorry Wargrunt but imitation is the sincerest form of flattery! Then I used my black undercoat and dry brushing technique and added a ton load of flags to confuse the onlooker! Anyway - it’s a lovely army - easy to paint and I got my mojo back! Normans back on the painting table for the second time. I wonder if I can finish them this time or will Kyrenean Greeks win through?

Wargrunt's Lusignan Cypriot home camp is one of the better home camps I've seen.
And what a fantastic site!

Thank you paddy649 for sharing the link to Wargrunt and the Lusignan Cypriot army.
As snowcat says, the Wargrunt 'dockside harbour' (with ship) camp is excellent.

After 12 years sitting unfinished due to loss of interest,paint mojo and distraction by other armies I can finally say my Late Athenians are finished(waiting for basing).I added elements so that I can morph the army to a Other Greek army which partly renewed my interest,but apart from a little guilt at not finishing them the real drive to complete came when I did the shields....a mix of Veni Vidi Vici and LBM Studios transfers were a huge incentive in motivating me to finish the job....I'll post photos when I've completed the bases.
I dedicate my work to all the half painted and incomplete armies out there to show there is a little hope that they to may join the ranks of their brother completed armies.....maybe one day.😁
