    Looks awesome! Could use another light spear unit and possibly a melee cav unit, but besides that it looks epic!
    So hyped!

    This is amazing !!

    Im actually thinking of learning how to use 3D modelling software , i dont know a thing about modding but if i do make anything good ill send it to you for your perusal and then you can include it or discard it if you want
    If you work to earn a living, why then do you work yourself to death?

    The WIP's look nice. I like the models from TA:TW mod, and let me tell you these already look great. I can't wait to have armies of golden soldiers...!

    I can tell some of you are just as excited as I am to see this faction and I can tell you that the development of these units is well under way and hopefully we can bring you an update soon of a full model!

    I hope we can still expect to see the great looking Peter Jackson styled soldiers as some of the units, only reason they are my favourite tbh

    I wanted to point out that the work on the Easterling helm looks great, but I strongly caution you to avoid the temptation of making the unit's armor appear 'Gold'. For one, this rarely translates well into TW - it usually just looks yellow. But besides, as we can see from the OP's avatar the Easterling armor is in fact grey, or off-white, and very much appears to be steel. Dusty, battle-tested, while still being ornate. One of my big complaints from the TA:TW mod for Medieval 2 was that the Easterling armor was far too 'yellow' and I hope you guys avoid this pitfall.

    Although, the shield that Mr.J posted looks -superb- and I could very much get on board with a burnished brown coloring as well.

    The Easterling armor from the movie seem to be made out of bronze, or at the very least bronze or copper-coated steel. It's more golden than it is silvery. He can tune the gold down, make it appear brass, but I'd be against having it just iron-y.

    Don't worry about colors. Current colors already almost perfect. Let's see how good LL will handle this

    So there was no much previews on this factions for a long time due to the dantaeuk's travel for a long time.
    That's why I show this WIP easterling(balchoth) unit:

    It was early to show him 'coz unit doesn't have textures, not implemented in game and have some bugs as may be seen so far. But there you go
