    That is some amazing work, but regarding the Persians, would they have been so dark? I have a couple of Iranian friends who are pure Persian, since they're all Zoroastrians, and they're really fair skinned.

    I deliberately made some of some of the faces more fair-skinned (notice the one on the far right) because I have also met Iranians that are as light as most Europeans. But you are comparing modern Iranians to medieval Iranian soldiers who likely would have spent a lot more time outdoors (at about 33 degrees of latitude). For a better comparison, look at this Iranian football site.

    Yes, I see your point, and by the period covered by the mod there would have been a lot of mingling between the dark skinned arabs and the basically white Persians.

    Sure, I'll PM you when I'm close getting started on Slavic faces. I may even do a specifically Polish face set.

    I really like this shield. (the model was created by Absinthia) I plan to make another version that will look like it is made out of Elephant hide.
