I have added few pictures of Jurchen on page 5.
i am now finished with Medieval period. the pictures of Uzbeks etc from 15th-16th century you can see in the links posted by Bawirsaq, no reason to post them again. next up are Tatars from ex-Golden Horde, Kalmyks, Cossacks and other Steppe people serving in the Russian army - or not! ;D as well as Manchu and (Khalkha) Mongols from Qing empire. btw are Bashkirs Steppe people too?

Three corrections:
1) The Battle of Manzikert is actually the Battle of Myriokephalonia 2) Conquest of Khwârazm is actually the capture of a Russian prince (and that town in the background is Russian too) 3) Timurids fighting Delhians is actually Chinggisid Mongols fighting Delhians

Temujin,
Bashkirs are definitely nomadic people, although their steppes are rather foresty )

but i agree the pictures are not very accurate, the plate showing the battle of Ayn Jalut even has pyramids in the background and the mamelukes wear armor & weapons from later periods but mostly new kingdom egypt.

no, i didn't posted it because it is too inacurate and you don't really see any Mongols closely...i also didn't posted 2 pictures of the Japanese invasion for the same reason but if you want, i'll post them.
