The artist Liu Yong Hua seemed to be fine with the previous Mongol plates posted earlier by you (Khwarazm, Rus, Europe). What got into him with the Mamelukes??  |

yes, Fighting Man series by Concorde publications...
personally, i think he is a good artist, but most of his pictures are not very accurate, for my taste there are too many elements of Chinese armour and weaponry for the Mongol warriors and such mistakes as here. the Kwarazmian soldier has a helmet that didn't existed yet in 12th century. the Europeans are more or less Ok.

Thanks Temujin  Few days ago I was looking for some Cossack pictures on the net and I wasn't pleased with the ones I found. These, on the other hand, are great. Thanks again. |
