Looking for a Samurai Pattern

[Anders Heintz]

Hey Guys!

I need some help in finding a good pattern to paint one of Pegasos latest releases.

I want to find a good picture of a colorful pattern (or just 'simple and stylish') typical to samurais.

Does anyone know of a good online source or have some pictures they wouldnt mind sharing?

Thanks in Advance!

I assume you do not have any helpful books, so I just Googled "samurai pictures." I found a bunch of references. Here's just one of them:

Good luck!

The daisho and kamishiho (hemp wings) were not usually that colourful, maybe just a simple repeat pattern or a few mon, in blues and browns mostly

Here are some early photos thanks to Al Yojimbo on Japanese Samurai History Forum http://au.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/alsanjuro/my_photos

There are also several useful links on Quang's Pilipili site http://www.pilipili-miniatures.com/pages_g...s/japanese.html
