Playmobil 4691 Arabian Warrior

Have been waiting awhile for the arrival of 4691 Arabian Warrior. I figure it would be a bulk buy & quickly form an Muslim army against my Crusader knights... but it was not meant to be. As it turn out, tis figure was not as nice as it could be. Playmobil utilized the same brown tone too many times over it: flash parts, leather suit on back & the shield. Is there only ONE brown swatch in Playmobil's palette? Even plain black would have achived the contrast need.

The brown on his back doesnt actually make him topless, as his sleeves are white. Strange... I did a quick mod by adding black hair & shield to give it a bit of a contrast. I still have to spay his back to white.

Added a chain mail head piece to my original Arabian Swordman. With some facial hair he could become Saladin. But for now, the great Saladin's army will have to wait.
