      The Rohan helmet might work better for a group of Varangian mercenaries among the Byzantines, rather than for the Byzantines themselves.

    Best part of the Harry Potter knight that you made is you can swap out that plume with a different color, give it a shield and cloak/half-cloak, and you instantly have a knight with a different faction or heraldry. Good for a tournament knight or “knights of the round table” situation.

    By far your best direction yet, going for medieval realism is what the best and most ingenious designers in the MOC world do IMO. Finally removing the yellow which had it's controversy during the "SW yellow, but one brown" gate. I also think most of your followers are adults and the yellow heads are for 3 year olds... 😅 But in all seriousness, great work ❤❤❤

    No, no, Byzantium rarely had black colors in their uniforms. Honestly, purple or bright red details would suit them, and arms could be replaced with brown or red, and l gloves could be brown. And besides the Rohan helmet, a helmet with a nasal and aventail or a golden helmet from the sets for Prince of Persia could be suitable, or the most reliable option is an old-school helmet with an aventail.

      Just as a clarification, I wanted to combine two models, but the basic one can be found by typing "lego war elephant tutorial mark of falworth" on google.
      I hope it can be useful to you.

    What about another batch of peasant figures? I tried to combine the figures from the medieval market square with some of the new D&D CMF, but couldn't get many matches. 1:15 I agree about the Farmer's Cowl hood piece. They should bring it back, but also the classic peasant torsos from the castle kingdoms & castle fantasy era sets from around 10 years ago. Those were the best, but very expensive to buy today.
